Irish seek huge upset

New Ireland boss Heimir Hallgrimsson is hoping to engineer another huge upset against England today-eight years after his Iceland team shocked the Three Lions at Euro 2016.

The 57-year-old was Iceland co-manager with Lars Lagerback when they masterminded a 2-1 last-16 victory against Roy Hodgson's men - one of the most humiliating results in England's history.

Now he is targeting the same result in his first game in charge of Ireland in the League B fixture in Dublin after replacing Stephen Kenny.

"That night was special," said Hallgrimsson, who has also managed Jamaica. "Everything we did that night succeeded, whether it was tactical, taking our chances, defending our goal, and nothing England tried that night succeeded, so it was just one of those days.
