The Republic of Ireland beat Israel 3-0 in the Nations League in Debrecen, Hungary, on Sunday, with goals from Troy Parrott, Adam Idah and Jack Moylan inside 25 minutes. There were no handshakes before or after the match, and the Irish players bowed their heads during Israel's anthem. It was Ireland's first win of the campaign, three days after defeat in Kosovo.
