Hopefully, it’s nothing too serious. He just pulled up awkwardly with no other player near him. Dara O’Shea is going to come on to take his place. 9:07PM Dovbyk puts the ball across the area. It’s a nervy moment as it could easily take a deflection with all the bodies in there, but ultimately, Kelleher gathers it comfortably. 9:11PM Ireland have offered very little as an attacking force and it feels like a change is needed. As I type though, they win the ball in a good area before Hendrick’s shot is deflected wide. 9:16PM Triple change for Ireland.
Obafemi, McClean and Browne are on for Robinson, Stevens and Christie. It looks like Browne will play right wing-back. 9:18PM Ukraine make a double change. Kacharaba and Mudryk are replaced by Pikhalyonok and Karavaev. 9:21PM Cullen crosses for Obafemi who heads it to Duffy, but the defender completely mishits his attempted shot on the volley. That sums up Ireland’s night so far. 9:23PM Ireland dejected after conceding a goal. 9:24PM Ireland make another change.
— FAIreland ⚽️🇮🇪 (@FAIreland) June 8, 2022 7:47PM We’re underway… 7:49PM Decent start from Ireland. Jason Knight makes a good purposeful run through midfield, but Robinson can’t quite control his through pass. 7:51PM More positive play from Knight. He evades the challenge of three defenders wide left, but his subsequent low shot is saved with relative ease by Lunin. 7:54PM Ukraine threaten on the counter-attack but Collins shows good pace to get back well and make the recovery tackle. It’s been a lively start, with Ireland’s pressing causing the Ukrainians to concede possession sloppily on more than one occasion. 7:56PM Ukranian fans during the game. 7:58PM Space opens up for Knight on the edge of the area and his powerful strike is tipped away for a corner by Lunin.
Ireland started brightly but struggled to maintain that momentum thereafter, with Ukraine coming more into it as the half progressed. Kenny’s side have had some decent spells in possession but as with the weekend, too often appear toothless and ineffectual in the final third. You get the sense a change is likely needed to prevent a similar outcome to Armenia, with Ukraine looking increasingly dangerous on the counter-attack. 8:49PM Before the match, Ireland captain Séamus Coleman and the mascots presented the Ukraine support with sunflowers, the national flower of Ukraine, as a show of our solidarity 🇺🇦We stand with Ukraine ✊#WeAreOne | #IRLUKR pic. com/3tqn7saUHZ— FAIreland ⚽️🇮🇪 (@FAIreland) June 8, 2022 8:51PM The second half has begun.
Ukraine have made one change at the break. Zubkov is replaced by Tsygankov 8:52PM Half chance immediately. Ogbene crosses for Knight, whose goalbound shot is blocked. 8:54PM IRELAND 0-1 UKRAINE (TSYGANKOV 48) 8:58PM Ukraine take the lead through the substitute only just on the field. Tsygankov’s inswinging free-kick from the right-wing eludes everyone including Kelleher, who can only help it on its way into the net. A bad start to the second half for Ireland.
Moments later, Collins has to make a last-ditch block to stop Dovbyk’s shot from the edge of the area. 9:01PM Cullen has just been booked for a late challenge on Sydorchuk. Ireland look second best and badly in need of inspiration as it stands. 9:03PM Here’s a look at the opening goal… Tsygankov's free-kick evades everyone to give Ukraine the lead in Dublin💻 https://t. co/IkeZyr9KXT📺 https://t. co/Xi7cV6ut8B 📻 https://t. co/gC15h8YXpn #RTEsoccer pic. com/Ks2VcsLKDw— RTÉ Soccer (@RTEsoccer) June 8, 2022 9:05PM There’s a stoppage now as John Egan is receiving treatment.

As it happened: Ireland v Ukraine, Nations LeagueIreland 0-1 Ukraine 6:43PM · 8 JUN 22 Hello, and welcome to today’s liveblog. We’re set for an intriguing fixture. Both these sides come into tonight’s match on the back of disappointments at the weekend. Ukraine saw their World Cup hopes end amid a heartbreaking loss to Wales, while Ireland got their Nations League campaign off to a losing start in Armenia.
Better from Ireland. 8:12PM Fans at the game. Source: James Crombie/INPHO 8:16PM With half an hour played, this game is finely balanced. After a bright opening from Ireland, Ukraine have come into it more, though neither side has been particularly dominant. 8:18PM Zubkov tries a shot from distance, but it’s straight at Kelleher. Both sides have been largely restricted to those kinds of ambitious efforts so far. 8:22PM Hendrick plays an incisive through ball for Robinson as the hosts counter. The West Brom attacker goes down in the area under the defender Bondar’s challenge as he charges towards goal but the referee waves away Ireland’s penalty claims. Judging by the replay, it was probably the correct call. 8:28PM It initially appears as if Ukraine have taken the lead after Kacharaba puts the ball in the net with a stunning effort after the ball falls to him on the edge of the area.

Ogbene comes off, and CJ Hamilton makes his debut. 9:25PM So close! Obafemi’s cross finds Duffy and the defender’s header hits the cross bar before being cleared for a corner. 9:26PM Another decent chance. Cullen’s corner is headed on by O’Shea for Obafemi, who nods it just wide. 9:31PM Cullen flashes a shot from distance wide after a good run down the right from Hamilton in the build-up. Meanwhile, the latest Ukraine change has seen Sikan replace Dovbyk. 9:32PM Less than five minutes of normal time remaining. Can Ireland find an equaliser? 9:33PM Ireland's Jason Knight has a chance on goal. 9:35PM McClean curls in a free-kick that Duffy heads just wide, though replays suggest he would have been offside anyway. Another Ukraine substitution sees Sydorchuk replaced by Ignatenko. 9:36PM There will be five minutes of stoppage time… 9:37PM Ireland's Cj Hamilton comes on for his debut.
