Ireland beat Albania 1-0 – and secured Nations League promotion – amidst dreadful conditions in a marathon match in Shkodër this evening.
INTERIM REPUBLIC OF Ireland manager Eileen Gleeson has hailed her side for coming through “a chaotic night” and securing the win needed to clinch promotion to League A of the Uefa Women’s Nations League.
And the result, paired with Northern Ireland and Hungary’s 1-1 draw, secured top spot with two games to go. Asked whether she thought the players should have been taken off before half time as a thunderstorm played havoc, the double-jobbing FAI Head of Women’s and Girls Football said: O’Sullivan, who scored her 20th international goal on her 109th cap, similarly thought that the game got to a stage where it might not be completed.
