VIDEO: Shane Long’s goal played out to German TV commentary is pure bliss

Whether it's the 'bah' or the description of Darren Randolph's Pirlo-esque pass to Shane Long as a 'langer ball', this gets sweeter with each listen.

As the nation of Ireland was leaping around their front rooms whilst listening to George Hamilton try to describe Long's crackerjack finish, the Germans were already analysing what went wrong. In the cold light of day, you have to hand it to Jon Walters for his decoy role, Randolph for his well-flighted ball and Shane Long for every magnificent thing else. The goal, which secured Ireland a 1-0 win, will go down in our footballing history as one of our finest. What better way, then, to enjoy it than to listen to what the German's made of it all...
