Ireland and Estonia tied in Dublin 1-1 tonight.
Estonia scored in the 56th minute when Vasilljev scored with a shot that Given should have saved.
Ireland had lead Estonia 1-0 following a goal by Steven Ward following a corner kick by Damien Duff.
Kevin Doyle headed on Duff's corner and after the goalkeeper parried it, Ward finished the rebound to the net.
The goal came after thirty minutes in a match that Ireland dominated from the beginning.
The Estonian goal left the score 5-1 on aggregate for Ireland who defeated Estonia 4-0 in Estonia on Friday night

Hooray for Hollywood and Robbie Keane. However, I watched Germany absolutely dismantle the Dutch. Klose and Muller are brutes. The Irish are a bunch of leprechauns in comparison. Now, what will Trapattoni do? Keane is the greatest playmaker that I hve ever seen. However, his miss of a close in shot dovetails with one against Slovakia. They absolutely do not have a goal scorer and that is why they have to constantly play the Italian style of defense and counterattack and then to penalties after nil-nil. There must be some strapin' lads in Dublin somewhere who can shoot cannon balls.
