Ireland vs Finland Live Score and Live Stream

Preview

Ireland National Football Team were up against Finland National Football Team in the Group Stage of the UEFA Nations League B on November 14. The match finished with Ireland victorious, 1-0.

Evan Ferguson scored the only goal of the game on the 45th minute of the match, handing Ireland the advantage and eventually securing the win.

A month after their last match in UEFA Nations League B Group Stage, Ireland and Finland meet again. In their last face-off, Ireland secured a 1-2 win. Following a recent loss to Greece on October 13, Ireland aim to regroup and turn things around in this upcoming clash. Resolving issues at the back will be vital for improvement, particularly since their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have struggled to keep opponents from scoring, conceding in their last seven matches.

Finland are enduring a rough patch as well, entering this game after suffering four losses in a row to England, Ireland and Greece, having failed to win in their last six outings. Their backline has lacked consistency, with goals conceded across nine consecutive matches.

This UEFA Nations League clash shines a light on the players who have played crucial roles in creating and converting chances for Ireland National Football Team and Finland National Football Team in this campaign. Robbie Brady and Liam Scales have been pivotal for Ireland’s attack, crafted under Heimir Hallgrimsson’s leadership, combining to deliver important goals and assists. Brady has emerged as Ireland’s leading scorer in UEFA Nations League this season, netting one goal, and is also the team’s top assist provider, with one key pass leading to a goal so far this term. Festy Ebosele, Mikey Johnston and Joshua Cullen have also played key roles, contributing with goals and assists to fuel Ireland’s attack.

Meanwhile, Finland’s attacking options, with Markku Kanerva at the helm, have been bolstered by Joel Pohjanpalo, the team’s top scorer, and Arttu Hoskonen, both of whom have contributed crucial goals. Pohjanpalo leads Finland’s scoring charts in UEFA Nations League this season with one goal, with Walta contributing one assist to top their creative tally in the league.
