Soccer: Ireland lead at half-time

Andorra 0, Ireland 1 (half time)

Ireland are in the lead at half-time in their World Cup Qualifying match against Andorra in Barcelona.

Ian Harte scored from the spot in the 33rd minute after Roy Keane was brought down by the goalkeeper.

Robbie Keane and Matt Holland missed chances for the away side in the first half.

Gary Doherty replaced David Connolly after 26 mins - the switch is thought to be tactical.

A substantial victory for Ireland would put them top of the group if Holland beat Portugal in the clash of the section's favourites in Oporto.
