Republic of Ireland players repeated their stance of bowing their heads for the Israeli anthem and declining to take part in pre-match handshakes prior to the second of their highly charged Nations League fixtures in Serbia. Caoimhin Kelleher and Dor Peretz‚ who captained Ireland and Israel respectively on the night‚ did not shake hands prior to kick off. The stance mirrored last weekend's fixture‚ when Dara O'Shea and Manor Solomon had led Ireland and Israel in Hungary. O'Shea missed the second match due to attending the birth of his child‚ while Solomon was only fit enough for the bench for Israel.

Ireland manager Heimir Hallgrimsson was forced to end his press conference early after his players were accused of using a racist term by an Israeli journalist one day before the two nations are set to meet again in Nations League action. The first Ireland-Israel tie earlier this week became football's most politically charged match amid calls for the Republic to boycott the fixture due to the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. While the fixture went ahead‚ Ireland's players voted to wear black armbands to honour civilian lives lost in the conflict‚ lower their heads during the Israeli national anthem‚ and fail to exchange pennants as is custom during international ties.
There was doubt over the weekend whether Ireland would fulfil their fixtures against Israel this international break‚ but the first game was played at the weekend and the second is scheduled to take place too. Ireland beat Israel 3-0 in their first fixture in Hungary on Sunday night‚ with goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu having pulled out of the highly-charged match on ethical grounds. A petition to stop the game going ahead had been signed by almost 20‚000.

Vieira played for Arsenal between 1996 and 2005‚ a period defined by the intense rivalry between the two clubs.
