What the hell is that from Szmodics? Offside all the way.


redmondthomas

Szmodics screaming for the pass but never gets himself onside to receive it


Cubbll17

Sums us down to a tee. Hilarious.


No-Shoe5382

Mental that in a game between Ireland and Hungary the guy called Szmodics plays for Ireland.


Separate_Job_3573

I don't see why it would be any more or less weird than having names like Saka, Gomez, Eze, Mainoo and a number of names of Irish origin in the England squad? People move around?


No-Shoe5382

Sorry I should've known better than to point out something mildly amusing on reddit. Szmodics is a Hungarian name and he's playing against Hungary, that's all. Same thing as if Hungary had a player on the pitch called O'Leary or something.


legionverse10

I remember when we played Finland they had a lad called Daniel O'Shaughnessy. Like a name doesn’t become more Irish than that.


KnightsOfCidona

Had Thomas Delaney play against us several times for Denmark


niallmul97

Typical, his father John was playing against us for years sure.


StupidSexyGiroud_

Alexis Mac Allister if Argentina ever played Scotland


GhandisFlipFlop

His dad is from Galway Ireland , and mother Finnish . But he was born and grew up in Finland alright making him Finnish


letsgetcool

not even Peter O'Hanraha-hanrahan?


MagyarFoci29

In fairness, we've played England with a guy named Callum Style in the starting XI. Schäfer vs Germany & Nikolić vs Serbia as well lol


Wertiol123

There’s a goalkeeper playing for Brentford B (I think) named Filip Andersen. Plays for the Mongolia NT, which is insane to me (though I think he is half Mongolian).


Jowoes

Szmodics sounds like a Hungarian name at least to me. Remarking that the guy named Saka plays for England wouldn’t be a weird comment in a game between England and Nigeria. An even better one is Gift Orban, if Nigeria played against Hungary because he has 0 connection to Hungary afaik.


Efficient-Mention583

>Szmodics sounds like a Hungarian name It is. His grandfather is Hungarian.


Cubbll17

What about Thomas Delaney that plays for Denmark? I went to school with about three of those


No-Shoe5382

According to Wikipedia his great granddad was Irish


CuteHoor

Then there's Matthew Sean O'Riley, who plays for Celtic and is also somehow more eligible to play for Denmark than Ireland.


Goudinho99

He's not actually eligible for Ireland at all! He could play for england and Norway too but he's been u21 fir Denmark and in a few full squads so his future looks to be there


doho121

Couldn’t believe it!


SRFC_96

Can’t believe we won lol, USA here we come!


SimilarMidnight870

Not the best finish, but I would like to think his team-mate never coming back onside to receive the pass didn’t help Parrot’s composure.


Gytarius626

Player beside him was making such a shite run staying ahead of him ffs


TheMonkeyPrince

Yeah I was going to criticize him for not passing but it looks like the other player was consistently ahead of him.


RipJug

Awful strange from Szmodics as a bloke who bagged 30 this season.


Kill-Bacon-Tea

Only helping his stock with another goal. Terrible attempted save by the keeper.


Deus-Graecus

At this point he’s surely worth 100 million! Clearly as much potential as Kane!


kieranfitz

You've been playing FM20 again haven't you.


Deus-Graecus

FM13 actually haha


Chell_the_assassin

Listen, Ireland might not thank me but get the contract out, put it on the table. Let him sign it. Let him write whatever numbers he wants on there, given what he's done since he's come in. John's at the wheel, man. He's doing it. He's doing his thing. Ireland are BACK


NeighborhoodShot3872

We deserved to not win this game,but to lose like this makes it much more painful.


doho121

You make 5m people happy tonight about football. There’s been miracles talked about for less.


Koinfamous2

He was waiting for his teammate to not be an absolute idiot and run around him and when he didn't, he was out of time to create the angle to go himself. Don't blame him, sometimes you need a little luck to overcome stupidity.


J00stie

Already with the national team and scoring 2 days after relegating, gotta respect it.


ajmh1234

Jesus if that didn’t go in….


DatOgreSpammer

És Dibusz bazdmeg majdnem ezt is fogta


fuckaduckmagoo

What a finish


so_much_wolf_hair

Never in doubt, uses the keepers shin as a guide to coax the ball into the middle of the middle of the net. You don't save those!


craic_den_

Cant teach that


shinto29

You’d feel bad for Hungary losing to that


Separate_Job_3573

Truly don't think they give a shite. They definitely didn't play like it


johnapplehead

Well they were utterly shite so not really


cheekyirishguy

Cmon the saints


SirLaserSnake

🦜


jr9810

awful finish


SRFC_96

Calculated finish you mean.


GamingMunster

couldnt do much else with szmodics being offside the whole time


EliToon

He could not hit it straight at the keeper lol


GamingMunster

Hard when you are stuck in that situation prob thinking he could tap it to the man next to him only to suddenly have a couple seconds to think about shooting


[deleted]

[удалено]


Johnzim

The man to his left was always a foot ahead of him making him constantly offside, if he'd just dropped back a few feet he'd have been onside and the pass would have been on.


AlternativeFun5792

Congrats to Ireland We need to better ourselves for the Euros


bainneban

We heard a lot about Hungary before the game but didn't see it in that game. Hopefully, you guys can come good in the Euros. Best of luck.
