The postman - still not delivering on 00:32 - Sep 10 by bob566
Watched it. One was a great save by neure, the other a scramble. He was excellent. Got a standing ovation
Or one was a terrible first touch giving Neuer the time and space to cover the goal - Washington then fired the shot straight at the keeper. The second: goal mouth scramble? I call that an open goal. Flashback to the training ground: “Conor you’ve got an open goal to put your side one up against Germany in an important Euro Qualifier. Do you .. A) Score? B) Fall over?”

The first one was a miss but keeper did well. The second was terrible, ball comes over and he falls over. Game still 0-0 at that stage too.
Then with game at 1-0, Ireland put another good quality cross low into the box and Washington stands next to his marker and watches it. Doesn't attempt to move into space or anticipate where the ball will be delivered.
If he got a standing ovation, it must have been for effort.

Surely anyone giving Washington the nickname 'The Postman' has got his tongue about as far into his cheek as it is physically possible. There is only one real postman

It's part irony and fact as that was what he did for a living whilst playing non league football.
