Pressure continues to mount on Stephen Kenny after Ireland began their Nations League campaign with consecutive losses to Armenia and Ukraine.
The Ireland boss had wanted to top the group, but the Boys in Green instead find themselves bottom after two games, although Kenny refuses to accept that his side are in a relegation battle to League C.
There is some concern within the FAI as to how quickly momentum has ground to a halt and Kenny's position could be under threat if further poor results follow against Scotland on Saturday and Ukraine in Poland on Tuesday.
