Evan Ferguson’s fourth senior international goal handed Republic of Ireland a 1-0 Nations League victory over Finland as Caoimhín Kelleher saved a penalty to see them across the line.
The 20-year-old Brighton striker’s header in the final minute of the first half proved sufficient to add three more points in Group B2 to those his side secured in the reverse fixture in Helsinki last month, but only after Liverpool keeper Kelleher had kept out the substitute Joel Pohjanpalo’s second-half spot-kick.
