Forde: "We'll need to be at our best"



Precision Goalkeeper David Forde has said Ireland will need to be at their best if they are to qualify from what he described as a “mini-group” within Euro 2016 qualification Group D.

“It’s a tough group,” Forde told RTÉ Sport.

“You’re looking at Germany probably looking like the strongest outfit, Poland and Scotland and ourselves in that mini-group to qualify for the second spot.

“We beat Poland at home and we drew 0-0 away recently, as well, so you know we know we need to be on our game, and if we are up to our best, I think we can qualify.”
