Also Northern Ireland complete
The transfer market statistics are enriched by two more milestones. All matches of the national team of Ireland and Northern Ireland are now available in our database. The standout player in Irish history is former striker Robbie Keane, who is both the all-time record player and goalscorer for the Boys in Green. The 41-year-old, who has already worked as an assistant coach for the national selection, has 146 games and 68 goals.
Ireland conceded the two biggest defeats against their second most frequent opponent England. Once there was a 0:13 and once a 2:13. The clearest victory, meanwhile, was not in double digits. It was 8-0 on November 16, 1983 in the European Championship qualifier against Malta.
Keane, Duff & Co.: Ireland’s record cap players
In Northern Ireland, the record international and goalscorer are on two different pairs of shoulders. Glasgow Rangers professional Steven Davis (128 games) leads the list of players with the most appearances, David Healy (36 goals) the most accurate. The “Green & White Army” fought most duels against England. In 63 meetings, however, they could only win five times (46 defeats).
