No, Ireland didn't qualify, our team is a bit shite at the moment. They're all very young and new though, so hopefully they'll be a decent team in time for the European Championship in 2016.
If England beat Costa Rica, and Italy win their next two games, England can still get through to the next round, so all is not lost yet.

Only on goal difference.
So far we have
England 2
Italy 2
Uruguay 3
Costa Rica 3
Let's assume that England beat costa rica 1-0 or 2-1 (depending on how shit Baynes and defence is)
That will level out England and Costa Rica to 4.
I predict 3-2 between Italy and Uruguay. That gets Uruguay's goal total up to 5.
Tomorrow, I'd say 3-1 to Italy.
So then we have
England 3/4
Italy 8.
Costa Rica 5
Uruguay 5. Uruguay will qualify due to more goals being scored in one match.
This is a big if, if england score three goals when they play Costa Rica they might have a chance of getting through. Not bloody likely though.
We'll have to see what happens tomorrow.
