Ireland v Israel live updates: Controversial match set to go ahead

After what must rank as the most dramatic day in Irish football since Saipan, tonight’s Nations League game between Ireland and Israel looks set to go ahead. Kick-off is set for Debrecen, Hungary at 7.45pm Irish time. We will keep you updated with any and all developments over the next few hours and during the game itself.

Here’s where we are. The situation has remained largely unchanged since last night, the only concrete development today being the naming this morning of QPR defender Jimmy Dunne as Ireland’s third goalkeeper for the game. This is purely a piece of admin – Uefa matchday statutes decree that all international teams name three goalkeepers in their matchday squad.
