Republic of Ireland manager Heimir Hallgrimsson has hailed Caoimhin Kelleher following his man-of-the-match performance against Finland last night.

The Liverpool goalkeeper saved a second-half penalty, and the rebound, as Ireland picked up a 1-nil win at the Aviva Stadium.

Evan Ferguson's goal late in the first half ensured that Ireland will finish third in their group, and they'll now head into a promotion/relegation playoff against a League C team next year.

Hallgrimsson says Kelleher played a big part in helping to secure the victory

Interim England boss Lee Carsley insists captain Harry Kane had no issues with being left out of the side for their 3-nil win over Greece.

Goals from Ollie Watkins, who started up front, debutant Curtis Jones and an own goal secured them the victory in Athens.
