England Wins 2-0 Over Ireland in Dublin

England secured a 2-0 win over the Republic of Ireland in Dublin, with goals from former Ireland players Declan Rice and Jack Grealish, who were met with hostility from Irish fans for switching allegiances. Interim manager Lee Carsley, who faced criticism for not singing the national anthem, enhanced his prospects for a permanent role. Despite early chances, Ireland's passive strategy allowed England to control the game, leading to a comfortable victory. The match marked the beginning of England's Nations League campaign under Carsley's leadership following Gareth Southgate's resignation. Ireland, under new manager Heimir Hallgrímsson, struggled to match England's tempo, resulting in a frustrating afternoon for the home side.
