Republic of Ireland heads to a Nations League play-off fixture following 1-0 win over FinlandEva OsborneThe Republic of Ireland are heading safely to a promotion/relegation play-off after their 1-0 victory over Finland in the Nations League. Up until now, their only win was a 2-1 victory away from home against Finland back in October. The team currently sits in third place with six points in their Nations League group, behind England in first place and Greece in second. Ireland went ahead on the cusp of half-time after Ferguson headed in a cross to score his fourth international goal. In other Nations League games on Thursday, scorelines were bigger.
