Can you name the Ireland XI that lost 5-2 to Cyprus in 2006?

Colman Stanley

A dark day.

Ireland’s 2-1 loss away to Armenia on Tuesday brought up memories of the 5-2 disaster against Cyprus in 2006, during the Euro 2008 qualifiers.

There was plenty of debate on social media as to what was the Boys in Green’s worst loss of all time, and these two games were top of the list, along with the 1-0 loss to Luxembourg in 2021, and the 3-2 defeat to Macedonia in 1997.

Lets hope you have more success than Steve Staunton and his side in this quiz.

Good luck!
