Stephen Kenny’s side outplayed in Athens, leaving massive task to qualify
Oh dear, a fracas at the end of the game. Doherty and Tsimikas with some aggro.A sour end to the night. Ireland cannot complain about the result. Outplayed by Greece for long periods of the game. Zero points from two games now. An uphill task to qualify. Very few players stood out, error-prone match throughout the side. Stephen Kenny will be very disappointed with that.Last 10 minutes Ireland have created very little. Troy Parrott is on and wins a free-kick for last chance saloon.
Last-ditch chance for Ireland from that free-kick, headed back into the box, Collins has the ball and falls for Doherty to swing at it from the edge of the box with his left, but it’s saved by Vlachodimos.Obafemi with positive play, dribbles at the defence, gets past two before it goes out for a corner. But nothing comes of it and time is running out.On comes Michael Obafemi for Jayson Molumby, last roll of the dice for Kenny.
