World Cup correspondents: Ireland
Ireland

The Irish failed to qualify for the 1998 World Cup, but now they're back to cause an upset.

Ireland famously reached the quarter finals back in 1990. They'll be hoping to do the same with a talented side.

Nottingham student Chris Reinert, admits he's only half Irish, his other half being German! Chris takes a look at Ireland's chances in this year's World Cup. Also, see what Anthony Stanley thinks to the Ireland side.

Chris Reinert - Ireland
How is your country preparing for the World Cup?
Filling the pubs I should imagine!
How do you think Ireland will do in the World Cup?
Hopefully as well as we did the last time we participated. I expect we will progress beyond the group and into the knockout stages but beyond this it'll be down to some 'luck of the Irish'.
Who's your best player and why?
We have a lot of underestimated talent but Roy Keane is the driving inspiration, belief and experience that hopefully will be the difference between mediocrity and world class.
What do you think to the England side?
Not bad but could be better. I don't think they will reach the semi-finals but should like Ireland get past their group.
Where will you be watching the matches?
Due to the times wherever I can. The local Irish pubs would be the first choice but at home with a cool pint of Guiness if not.
