The Irishman moved to Ireland.
about the head coach of the England national team Lee Carsley commenting on the victory over the national team of Ireland (2:0) in the match of the 1st round of the Nations League. Quotes from Irish BBC.
" We cheered as we ourselves were spoiled. The boys deserve praise, I think we have shown that we have real talents, and we can be very pleased with the “dry” match.
Rice and Grilish scored the best goals. Powerful combinations and brilliant completions. I think that in the future the stench of resentment will be even greater. Jack certainly has no need to make us aware of his bitterness, but today’s goal is worth his while, and I am confident that he will continue to do so in the same way..
The field was even dry, sticky - not the best place for dribbling, but, in my opinion, Gordon became a real threat with his movements, both with and without the ball. Vine has retained his form from last season and creates sharpness in the final third.
I think we need to pay more attention to Ireland. Even the team is strong, the stench did not deprive us of space, only in the other half there might have been a little more. It was really important to break through, but after a 2:0 deficit we began to feel comfortable,” Karsli said.
It is significant that Lee Carsley, during his playing career, played 39 matches for the Irish national football team between 1997 and 2006.
