Chiedozie Ogbene

Great Irish name

If you knew him, you would never question his Irishness

Any reports on the game V Canada?

I stayed up and watched it. First half was an absolute disgrace tbh, we never had a foot on the ball and created absolutely nothing except Devoys chance.
Second half was more even and the penalty was a stonewaller.
Canada were poor IMHO, had one SOT in the 2nd minute and everything else was high and wide.
My big take away is that Devoy and the LOI lads are miles off international football and also at the moment are Umeh and Ndaba

Ireland's home game with Israel set for neutral venue

The Republic of Ireland's home UEFA Nations League fixture with Israel is likely to be moved to a neutral venue, RTÉ Sport understands.

Israel constantly playing in Hungary hardly makes it a neutral venue. Another example of why the FAI will always lag behind the GAA and IRFU.

Someone rightly pointed out that this is the equivalent of Ireland playing apartheid South Africa in a neutral venue. That would not have been accepted
