The Republic are still without a win in the Nations League - after they lost 1-0 to Ukraine last night (Wednesday) at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.

It means Stephen Kenny's side are now bottom of Group B1 after two matches, having lost their opening game to Armenia.

A free-kick from Viktor Tsygankov gave the visitors all three points.

Late on Shane Duffy (below) came close to bagging an equaliser but his header was saved on to the crossbar.
