Nathan Collins believes the Republic of Ireland have put “pride back in the shirt” over the course of this international break.

After a battling performance in Portugal, which ultimately ended in defeat thanks to Rúben Neves injury-time header, Ireland again dug deep and got their rewards with a narrow 1-0 victory over 10-man Armenia at the Aviva Stadium on Tuesday night.
