A potentially tricky trip to Dublin turned into a routine assignment for England in their opening Nations League fixture, with Declan Rice and Jack Grealish almost inevitably getting on the scoresheet against the Republic of Ireland, who they both previously represented.
After relegation to League B of this competition, England are expected to top their group in comfortable fashion, as they go up against the Finland, Greece and the Irish.
Finland were well-beaten by Greece on Saturday and have had little to cheer in recent months, with Wales among the sides to ease to big wins over them in 2024.
