Republic of Ireland centre-back Shane Duffy has penned a new four-year deal which will keep him at the Amex Stadium until 2021.

With Darren Randolph and Daryl Murphy both departing the Premier League in the last few days, a number of Irish players in England’s top flight is dwindling. Sunderland and Hull’s relegations saw John O’Shea and Darron Gibson drop out of the league while Aiden McGeady became their teammate after joining from Everton.

Ireland’s advantage in the race for the 2018 World Cup was saved by a late Jonathan Walters equaliser against Austria. Confidence was high among the Irish fan base going into this one, given the fact that Austria were missing some key players and in relatively poor form in the campaign so far. However, a pedestrian start was punished on the half-hour …

Ireland rescued a late point against Austria on Sunday, but it could, and perhaps should, have been all three. With the Boys in Green soaring after Jonathan Walters’ late leveller, Shane Duffy thought he’d headed home the winner after a scramble in the Austrian defence, only for the referee to rule it out.

Brentford manager Dean Smith has been speaking very highly of Ireland international defender John Egan. The 24-year-old has had a highly promising debut with the Bees in the Championship after joining from League One side Gillingham, and was rewarded for his fine form by being handed his first international cap by Martin O’Neill in a friendly against Iceland in March …
