One movie was a big '70s war epic. The part I remember most is the Nazi's trying to escape in disguise but stopping to rescue a child drowning in the mill run. In the rescue the uniforms became visible.
The other one, I think, revolved around a football game.
I think you're referring to The Mackenzie Break and Victory, both of which were not set in Ireland. The former, while set in Scotland, was filmed in Ireland.
There is a movie called The Night Fighters, starring Robert Mitchum and Richard Harris, that deals with the German's unsuccessful efforts to supply the IRA with weapons during WWII.
