1.37pmWhat happens next if Ireland beat Hungary on Sunday? John Fallon explains.
1.33pm Heimir HallgrÃmsson says he is unsure how Hungary will set up speaking to RTÉ before the match.
He’s made one change from the Portugal match and he says Jayson Molumby would’ve started over Jack Taylor… he doesn’t really explain why, I’m guessing he wasn’t fully fit.
1.30pm Right, the countdown to kick off is well and truly on. Just 30 minutes to go and below you can read how both teams are lining out.
12.48pm And the Ireland team news is in. Heimir HallgrÃmsson makes one change to Ireland team for decisive World Cup qualifier with Hungary.
12pm Ok, I know I said on Thursday that today was the day. But today really is the day.
Ireland’s heroic must-win win against Portugal on Thursday has now set up this must-win clash against Hungary in Budapest where another heroic effort will be needed.
