How Ireland Rated

Gavin Bazunu 7: A clean sheet against the eighth best team in the world is not to be sniffed at. Didn’t have a lot to do in the opening period bar a strong hand to save from Ronaldo on 13. Yet, rode his luck with a header and shot from Ronaldo that both dropped narrowly wide in the second half. Then thwarted the Man United striker in injury time.
