Heimir Hallgrimsson and Nathan Collins
Nathan Collins says his Ireland team will use the weight of expectation as motivation in their bid to reach a first World Cup in 24 years ahead of tomorrow’s opening qualifier against Hungary.
Heimir Hallgrimsson’s side kick off their qualifying tilt with a sold-out Lansdowne Road clash against Hungary, their first step on the road to North America. Collins insists his side won’t be burdened by the pressure of ending the nation’s long wait for a World Cup finals and rather use it as fuel across their 10-week qualifying sprint.
