Alan Browne rescues late draw for Ireland against Belgium in Dublin (Eurosport.com)

On the night the Football Association of Ireland celebrated their centenary year, Ireland put on a show at the sold-out Aviva Stadium and were arguably the ...

35' - GOAL! REPUBLIC OF IRELAND 1-1 BELGIUM (CHIEDOZIE OGBENE): Oh my, Ogbene levels with an overhead kick! 12' - GOAL! REPUBLIC OF IRELAND 0-1 BELGIUM (MICHY BATSHUAYI): A goal out of absolutely nothing! 85' - GOAL! IRELAND 2-2 BELGIUM (ALAN BROWNE): A stunning header draws Ireland level, again! Belgium continued to boss the game but 10 minutes before half-time Ireland levelled with a piece of magic of their own. One win in five is far from ideal preparation for a tournament in which the Red Devils will be ranked as one of the favourites. It may have only been a friendly, but that Ireland went toe-to-toe with the world's number one side (albeit without any players with 50 caps or more) is another clear sign of the progress they're making under Kenny.

Ireland had a Callum Robinson effort cleared off the line soon after the break but were caught cold at a 58th minute corner as Vanaken's header took a wicked deflection off Ireland captain Seamus Coleman to hand the lead back to the Belgians. But the visitors were ahead after 12 minutes when Batshuayi cut inside off the left wing to hammer home the opening goal with a curling shot across the face of goal into the far corner. It added gloss to the centenary celebrations of the Football Association of Ireland and extended the home team's unbeaten run to seven games.

Browne salvages draw for Ireland against World Cup contenders ... (The Guardian)

A late equaliser from Alan Browne gave Ireland a creditable 2-2 draw against Belgium, the world's No 1 team.

The home side gradually worked their way into the game with James McClean and Jason Knight linking well down the left and the Wigan man saw a 34th-minute shot from distance deflected wide. Batshuayi picked up the ball wide on the left and cut inside Séamus Coleman before dispatching a delicious curling shot past the diving Caoimhín Kelleher. He might have doubled his tally within four minutes but Josh Cullen’s block deflected his attempt over the bar. It was no more than Stephen Kenny’s side deserved – they are now unbeaten in seven outings and have lost once in 11 – after Chiedozie Ogbene had cancelled out Michy Batshuayi’s sumptuous opener, only for Hans Vanaken’s deflected header to hand the visitors the lead once again.

Robinson looked to seek an opportunity on the edge of the box when losing in the first half but was thwarted by the Belgium backline. This was Browne's first international goal in over a year, but the power and direction made it look easy. The Forward should have capitalised on the 47th-minute when he received the ball with an open goal in front of him, but the Belgium defence scrapped the ball away from his feet. The Wigan man was a handful on the left-hand side for Belgium, creating a number of chances towards the end of the first half. A deflection off Coleman gave Belgium their second lead of the game, but he made up for it with his pressing that led to a second equaliser. It wasn't the afternoon he would have hoped for, but to his credit, there is no blaming the Corkman for conceding to Michy Batshuayi's curling shot in the first half.
