Shane Duffy gave Ireland an early lead in the second leg of the World Cup play-off against Denmark.

The first leg in Copenhagen finished goalless but just six minutes had gone in the Aviva Stadium when Shane Duffy finally broke the deadlock.

Robbie Brady sent a free-kick in from the halfway line and Nicolai Joergensen miscued his clearance, then Duffy got to the ball before Schmeichel and nodded in to give Ireland a crucial lead!
