A late goal from Robbie Brady proved enough for Ireland to beat Italy 1-0 on Wednesday and secure a place for his team in the knockout stages of the European Championship. Brady's 85th minute header ended Ireland's 22-year wait for a competitive win over Italy and guaranteed that the team ended up as one of the best third-place teams. It's the first time Ireland has made it to the knockout stage of the European Championship, having failed to do so in its two previous appearances, in 1988 and 2012.
