Impressive premiere at Nations League for her England! In the “post-Southgate” era, the “three lions” passed by its headquarters for… fun Irelandclearing from halftime to take the three points (0-2).
First time after 16 matches where the England found two goals in the first half, with the team having a great image and having as scorers two players who have played in the past and in the infrastructure divisions in Irelandthem Rice and Gryllis.
England entered the match strongly, with Rice in the 11th minute to open the scoring, with the 25-year-old not celebrating it due to his past. The “three lions” had taken off and o Gryllis in the 26th minute, he made it 2-0, with the guests generally in control of the game and constantly pressing the opposing goal.
OR Ireland he tried in the counterattacks to create some phase and threaten, but at the last moment he broke it. OR England continued to be dominant in the second half, with both coaches making changes and the pace not being so frenetic.
Finally it 2-0 remained until the finale, with her England to start her obligations in the Nations League with the right hand!
