Jeff Hendrick feels Ireland should be recording their first win of the World Cup campaign at the sixth attempt next month in Azerbaijan.

A sequence of three defeats in a row was halted by a couple of 1-1 draws against Azerbaijan and Serbia in the past four days but Ireland’s sole competitive interest in the group now rests on catching Luxembourg for third place.
