Adam Idah rescues last-gasp point for Ireland against 10-man Hungary

Adam Idah came off the bench to earn the Republic of Ireland a point from a dramatic draw against 10-man Hungary in their opening World Cup qualifier.

The Swansea striker’s header in the third minute of added time made it 2-2 after Ireland had fought their way back from 2-0 down to stave off the spectre of defeat.

On a night when controversial Hungarian Prime Minster Viktor Orban was among a sell-out crowd of 50,137 at the Aviva Stadium, Ireland’s opening Group F fixture got off to a nightmare start when Barnabas Varga and Roland Sallai, who was later dismissed, scored inside the first 15 minutes.
