Packie Bonner and THAT save!

Packie Bonner and THAT save!

And now presenter Bill O’Herlihy is set to hang up his microphone after tonight’s World Cup Final.

And now the 75 year old has revealed that his favourite sporting moment of that career was Packie Bonner’s World Cup penalty save against Romania at Italia ’90.

The Corkman revealed “It was very exciting in the studio and a fantastic time for Ireland.

“Everyone knows where they were when the big Donegal man pulled off that wonderful save.”

O’Herlihy has been described as the “best in the business” by his old pal and fellow pundit Eamon Dunphy.

As Bill would say himself – “We’ll leave it there so.”
