    REACTION to Ireland vs Israel from Debrecen | OFF THE BALL BREAKFAST

    Two people who witnessed a chaotic, unprecedented weekend for Irish football join Colm Boohig & Enda Coll; OTB's Ben Symes and John Fallon of the Irish Examiner, speaking from Hungary after Ireland’s Nations League match against Israel. They react to FAI president Paul Cook’s combative post-match comments, the reported player vote on whether to fulfil the fixture, and the sense of a split camp — with eight players believed to have voted against playing. The lads also describe the eerie atmosphere inside the near-empty stadium, the pre-match protests, and disturbing reports of racist chanting. Plus: what happens next with Gavin Bazunu, and what to expect in Dublin on Thursday. With Amazon.ie, Irish brands at local prices.
