It is the beginning of a new era for Irish football as Heimir Hallgrimsson takes charge of the National Football team as Ireland take on England in the UEFA Nations League.

After a lengthy managerial appointment process, the FAI finally have their man with Hallgrimsson in charge for the upcoming UEFA Nations League and World Cup qualifiers.

However, the new boss has been handed a tough task to start with as Ireland take on neighbours England today at the Aviva Stadium.

In an intriguing turn of events, England will be managed by former Ireland international Lee Carsley. The ex-midfielder is in charge of the Three Lions on an interim basis and had previously been heavily linked to the job.

Carsley did reveal he met with the FAI for 'informal' discussions about the job but now finds himself on the cusp of being appointed permanent England manager.
