Can understand what Colm means about the second half. West Ham deserved it overall but the game was still open. Can’t be missing the chances we did early on, the same at Brighton no matter what anyone tells you about their lovely football.
66% of ball possession, enough first half chances to win two games, ask any keeper that it's hard to stop a ball when it bounces in front of you when you are at full stretch, not just that, he had to back peddle & slipped slightly, not getting a full hand to the ball was caused by the bounce. De Gea should not be hung out to dry on his own, there were 10+ players on the same side that didnt put in a shift. Luke Shaw who has been very good lately can take some of the blame, but he is English & they dont like to hang their own. Harry McGuire got away with full responsibility for his part in another error put down to De Gea, he asked for the ball, the pass was not the best, however, he failed to do what most of us know what to do, if in doubt, kick the f,ing thing out.

Connacht?! Clinical?! They butchered 3/4 try opportunities, they were energetic and motivated Ulster were not. Prendergast had a great game
Ger is living in cloud cuckoo land, Colm hurled well throughout the GaaGo debate.
Two bad results but in the end, a goalkeeping error and a 99th minute penalty decides the games
Rte are well able to spend tax payer's money on the King's coronation in England
Probably gets more viewers than the provincial finals
