UK prime minister Sir Keir Starmer and Taoiseach Simon Harris attended the Uefa Nations League match in Dublin’s Aviva Stadium together on Saturday evening.
The UK prime minister arrived in Dublin earlier on Saturday for his first official visit to Ireland in the role, and received a warm welcome from Mr Harris at Farmleigh House.
During the engagements, both leaders talked of a reset in relations between the UK and Ireland following the impact of Brexit.
Mr Harris said a reset in relations had to be embedded in “peace and prosperity, mutual respect and friendship”, but quipped that may have to be paused for the match. “We will have intense and friendly competition, and then we will renew and reset again later in the evening,” he said.
