Ireland nerves in tatters at half-time
Phew - got to half-time and no score in the game between Belgium and the Republic of Ireland.
Given how the first half played out, most Ireland fans are relieved not to have conceded.
It was a loooong 45 minutes.
Long 45 minutes there. Under the kosh. But giving them no real chances. Shite ref. Long 45 minutes ahead. #COYBIG #Ireland #IRLBEL

Getting to half time scoreless is a near miracle. #IRLBEL pray for sane in second half.

Belgium had by far the better of the chances and there has been some heroic defending from Ireland
#COYBIG #IRLBEL some superb defense in there lads. Think Shane could do with a little more loving .. and ball time!

And a LOT of people aren’t happy with the ref
Hope the referee is reconsidering his life at half time.....the bollox #COYBIG #IRLBEL

Shocking decision to book Hendricks. Ref looked at him with the ball on the pitch & still let Belgium take the throw in #IRLBEL #EURO2016

Fingers crossed for the second half.
