Match report as the Republic of Ireland beat Israel 3-0 in their controversial Nations League fixture; Troy Parrott, Adam Idah and Jack Moylan scored at the neutral venue in Hungary; players did not shake hands and Ireland players bowed their heads during Israels national anthem
Ireland's players wore black armbands in support of Palestine, bowed their heads, and refused pre-match handshakes.
Ireland easily beat Israel in a Nations League fixture that 24 hours earlier appeared in doubt. One Irish player pulled out of the match to express his opposition to Israel's actions in the Gaza Strip.
