    GOAL - Republic of Ireland 0-1 Luxembourg

    Gerson Rodrigues

    Oh.

    Ireland can't clear a long ball and it lands to Gerson Rodrigues, who smashes home a brilliant first-time effort which flies into the bottom corner from about 30 yards out.

    Ireland pump a free-kick long into the path of Shane Long and he handles it. Free out.
