The lessons we learned as Ireland grab another positive draw

Despite plenty of endeavour, Ireland’s attack lacked the requisite composure or finishing ability to adequately trouble their opponents for much of the 90 minutes.

Another positive 1-1 result

Mick McCarthy’s 4-5-1 formation placed David McGoldrick at its apex, Callum Robinson and James McClean on either flank plus Jeff Hendrick behind the hosts’ lone striker.
