The Republic of Ireland remain in contention for a place at next summer’s World Cup after last night’s 2-nil win over Portugal at the Aviva Stadium.

Troy Parrott scored both goals for the hosts as they secured a memorable win to keep their hopes alive.

Ireland now need to beat Hungary on Sunday in their final group game to earn at least a play off.
