Mick McCarthy second spell as Republic of Ireland manager begins with a laboured victory against Gibraltar in their Euro 2020 qualifier.

David McGoldrick reacts to a missed chance on a frustrating evening for the Republic of Ireland

It was the Republic's first competitive win in almost 18 months but it will do little to allay fears their poor form under Martin O'Neill may persist. The two right-sided defenders struggled to connect and Doherty was substituted with over 30 minutes remaining as the Republic's attacks were repeatedly hampered by the swirling conditions.

A Hourihane corner resulted in the opening chance for his side but Richard Keogh spooned a weak shot straight into the arms of Kyle Goldwin and the Gibraltar goalkeeper also had to be alert to prevent an own goal by his captain Roy Chipolina.Gibraltar made a strong start to the second half as they forced a corner in the opening minute. Darren Randolph had to produce a superb reflex save to deny Roy Chipolina as the veteran defender out-jumped Doherty to connect with a powerful header.

Well done Gibraltar, running the Irish close, no mean achievement.

that is a bizarrely positive headline for what, on paper, would seem to be a fairly abysmal result! Did Mick McCarthy write it?

1-0? Against Gibraltar? FFS. That is awful
