Weiss urges troops to seize chance to set up ‘something amazing’

Vladimir Weiss admits he will know what Georgia’s Euro 2020 fate is likely to be by the time the final whistle blows in tonight’s qualifier against the Republic of Ireland. The Georgians lost their opening Group D fixture 2-0 to Switzerland on Saturday and a repeat at the Aviva Stadium would leave them off the pace in the race for qualification.

Weiss’s men have already secured a play-off place as a result of their fine Nations League campaign, but as they continue their quest for a first trip to the final of a major tournament, the Slovakian believes what happens in Dublin could prove key.
