Robbie Brady is convinced the Republic of Ireland will prosper under new manager Stephen Kenny despite a testing start to his reign.

Burnley midfielder Brady and his team-mates slipped to a 1-0 Nations League defeat to Wales in Cardiff on Sunday as Kenny’s wait for a first win extended to seven games, the last six of which have seen them fail to score.
