Wayne Rooney has dubbed the Republic of Ireland celebrations post-victory in Hungary as "a little bit over the top". 

Ireland's Troy Parrott-led dramatic 3-2 comeback win in Hungary, coupled with their 2-0 dismissal of Cristiano Ronaldo and Portugal in Dublin last week, means Heimir Hallgrimsson's men have now secured a play-off berth, and an away semi-final tie with Czechia.
