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.

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.

Martin O'Neill has come under fire for his 'patronising' and 'condescending' response to a female TV reporter after he refused to explain his team selection following Celtic's 3-1 loss in the Europa League on Thursday. The Scottish giants were soundly beaten by Hungarian outfit Ferencvaros in a dismal start to their Europa League campaign‚ with O'Neill making four changes to the side that lost 3-0 to Old Firm rivals Rangers on Sunday. Goalkeeper Viljami Sinisalo was recalled to the starting XI in place of Sam Johnstone‚ while Oliver Sorensen‚ Haissem Hassan and James Forrest were also brought in by O'Neill.

Jamie Carragher believes Liverpool boss Andoni Iraola needs to have an awkward conversation with his vice-captain Dominik Szoboszlai and move him to right-back permanently. Szoboszlai‚ 25‚ was rewarded with a new £350‚000-a-week contract this summer after being named Liverpool's Player of the Season for his impressive performances in midfield last campaign - one of the few positives in what was otherwise a disappointing season for the Reds under Arne Slot. Despite establishing himself as a mainstay in midfield‚ the Hungarian has also been called upon to deputise at right-back‚ doing so sporadically last season and again during the second half of Liverpool's 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Mohamed Salah's new club Trabzonspor have confirmed the departure of head coach Fatih Tekke‚ less than a week after blocking his resignation. Tekke had attempted to quit in the aftermath of Trabzonspor's 5-0 defeat by Hungarian side Ferencvaros in their Europa League play-off last week. Tekke stated he was 'imposing this punishment on myself' after their exit.

Former Premier League star Akos Buzsaky has admitted he had been 'overwhelmed' by 'significant changes in his life' as he confirmed he is safe after being reported missing. The 44-year-old‚ who played for QPR in the English top flight‚ had been missing from Budapest since August 18. Police in Hungary had launched a search‚ while his former clubs had expressed their concern over his wellbeing.

Mohamed Salah's new manager has had his resignation blocked by Trabzonspor after the club crashed out of the Europa League. Trabzonspor had been hoping to overturn a 1-0 deficit from the first leg in their play-off tie‚ but were thrashed 4-0 by Hungarian side Ferencvaros on Thursday night. An early red card from summer signing Ruslan Malinovskyi had left the Turkish side facing an uphill battle to get back into the tie.

LEWIS STEELE IN CHICAGO: When Milos Kerkez signed for Liverpool last summer‚ an old colleague from his days in Hungary told Daily Mail Sport he was 'like a young horse'. Kicking everybody‚ a hive of energy unable to sit still‚ a relentless running - but‚ as former Hungary No 1 Adam Bogdan added at the time‚ it was always obvious this eccentric individual would make it to the top. After spending time with Kerkez in a swanky rooftop bar in Chicago‚ it was hard not to let that verdict pop back to mind.

Liverpool have confirmed that midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai has put pen to paper on a new long-term deal at the club. The Hungary captain has been rewarded for his impressive performances in what was a disappointing campaign for the Reds last term. The bumper new contract is set to keep Szoboszlai at Anfield until 2031 and represents a big box ticked for the club after the departures of Ibrahima Konate and Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid on free transfers in recent years.

DANIEL MATTHEWS IN KANSAS CITY: What a night it should be and what a glorious quirk of Messi's marathon international career that over the last 21 years‚ across six World Cups and 205 games for his country‚ the 39-year-old has never faced England. Meetings between these two nations don't come around often and the last time England faced Argentina - in a friendly in Geneva in late 2005 - Messi was suspended. A few months earlier‚ he had been sent off just 30 seconds into his Argentina debut against Hungary.
