Down by two with 1.7 seconds to play, Vince Carter nailed a stunning three-pointer

San Antonio thought they had the Texas derby sewn up until ‘Vinsanity’ entered the fray.

THE DALLAS MAVERICKS looked dead, buried and mourned against the San Antonio Spurs last night before Vinsanity took over.

With his team trailing and 1.7 seconds left on the clock, Vince Carter was fed the rock. He stepped his man and sent up an arcing three-point effort on the buzzer. The result? Nothing but net.

    Totally negative football by Ireland even now that Armenia are down to 10 men.

    Can’t understand why Seamus Coleman doesn’t get a chance to play for Ireland

    Cox justified his selection and Walters was impressive when he came on. This is just as well given that Doyle & (prob) Keane will miss the play off. Otherwise, wouldn’t be hugely optimistic – McGeady and Kelly were terrible while Andrews & Whelan were their usual dull uninspiring selves.

    Agree with everything except Andrews. He’s a ball-winner and has a big role in the side. I never noticed him while watching him on the telly but I was at the match today and he’s a pretty decent footballer. Definitely happy to see his name on the team sheet.

    Short straw again Adrian ?

    I’m predicting it’ll still be nil-nil right up to the 89th minute and suddenly Richard Dunne will charge down the pitch with the ball, while at the same time carrying the rest of the team in a fireman’s life and eventually bundle the ball over the line to scrap that vital draw.

    Yes I have a vivid imagination.

    What is it that makes me feel that even if this Irish team were in a European final I would still fell so uninspired! I wish it were different. Hopefully some new guys can add some spark to our play, but I have to hand it to trap there is a control element to this team that is paying off in terms of results, all we have to do is think back to the staunto years!…headless chickens!

    The Staunton years??? – Oh yeah, sorry, I had erased that from my memory.
    We have the guys to add a spark to our play but trap has no confidence in our ability to play football
