Emma Duffy Reports from Tallaght Stadium DENISE O’SULLIVAN HAS welcomed Ireland’s return to winning ways under new management as they look to bounce back from Euro 2025 heartbreak.
Kyra Carusa scored what proved to be the winner just before half time at Tallaght Stadium, but the Girls In Green were lucky to escape with all three points. “It’s the first game under a new manager. We have a long way to go and a lot to work on as a team, but we’ll take a look at the video in the next few days and see what we can improve on.”
The North Carolina Courage captain continued to stress those feelings post-match, and called for change in the future.“I voiced my opinion a few weeks ago, I felt strongly about the situation and I stand by what I said. He was honestly an amazing man, done a lot for us — and Eileen as well, she done so much for us.
Assessing the game overall, Ward said: “It was scrappy. It wasn’t pretty, but I think if we put it down, it was a clean sheet, three points and something to build on. “Just before kick-off we had to change the build-up in a way because there’s no way we could have built in the way we wanted to on the pitch.”

Ireland Near Completion of AIB Share Sale, Targeting 100% Exit by Year's EndIreland is nearing the end of its divestment of shares in AIB, the country's largest bank. Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe announced the recent sale of a 5% stake, raising €652 million and reducing the state's ownership to 12.5%. This marks a significant step towards fully exiting AIB, a goal the government hopes to achieve by year's end if market conditions are favorable. The Irish state previously intervened heavily in the banking sector during the 2008 financial crisis, injecting €64 billion into banks to stave off collapse. Since then, it has been gradually selling off its stake in various banks, including Bank of Ireland, which returned to full private ownership in 2022. The total proceeds from the sale of AIB shares so far have reached approximately €17.9 billion, returning a substantial portion of the state's investment.
