Republic of Ireland Senior Football
Team Results 1990 to 1994
Following hard on the heels of the Republic's
qualification for
the Euro 88 Finals Jack
Charlton further enhanced his legendary status with Irish soccer fans
when he led Ireland to qualification for the World Cup Finals for the
first time. Finishing in second place just just one point behind Spain,
Ireland qualified directly from Group 6 for the 1990 World Cup Finals
in Italy. This was a result that Irish football fans had been craving
for decades.
1990 World Cup Finals in Italy
As in the Euro 88 finals Ireland were drawn
with England in the group stages, along with Holland and Egypt. Ireland
went on to qualify for the quarter final against the host country Rome
yet only scored one goal from open play. Having beaten Romania in a very
tense penalty shoot-out (result 5:4) Ireland eventually succumbed to a
Toto Scillachi goal on an unforgettable night in the Italian capital.
1994 World Cup Finals in the USA
The Republic of Ireland senior team also
went on to qualify
for the 1994 World Cup in the USA. The result of the last match in
the 1990 Finals was a 1-0 loss to Italy and the 1994 World Cup began for
Ireland with a revenge defeat of the Italians by the same score line.
Ray Houghton,
one of Ireland's best recruits under the Granny
Rule, scored the all important goal. Despite this very promising start
and qualification for the next round Ireland surrendered tamely to the
Dutch in the withering heat of Orlando, Florida. The result was 2:0 at
full time. It was during this period that Irish
football greats such as Niall
Quinn and Roy Keane
came to prominence.
