Republic of Ireland 0-0 Qatar 1'
Goallllllllllllll! Nathan Collins drives home the header as ROI take an early lead against a lazy Qatari side, who don't know what has hit them. It comes from a free-kick after Jack Moylan was fouled. Superb start from ROI.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 5'
Jack Moylan has had a great start in this game in the opening 10 minutes and already has registered an assist.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 10'
During the stoppage in play, some fans threw tennis balls on to the pitch in an apparent protest about the Republic of Ireland's upcoming Nations League fixtures against Israel. ROI are set to clash against Israel in their Group B3 of the Nations League at an expected neutral venue on 27 September.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 18'
Surprisingly more tennis balls are thrown on the field with players now using that a water break and getting some instructions from the benches.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 22'
Qatar work the ball through midfield before a nice flick from Yusuf Adburisag gifts Akram Afif a chance. However, the shot is a tame one and is off the target.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 25'
Jack Moylan seems to be everywhere for ROI. The attacker strays offside with the hosts looking to add another goal just before the HT whistle.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 34'
Qatar will look to go into the break with a 1-0 scoreline. ROI look to add more goals before the break but Qatar are doing unbelievably well in defending their post.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 41'
Jack Moylan's evening is over after a clumsy challenge on Jassem Gaber. ROI are down to 10 men and will have to play majority of the second half with a man short. Great opportunity for the visitors to make this count.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 45'
Nathan Collins' early header gives the Republic of Ireland the lead at the break. However, the red card has shifted momentum in Qatar's favour.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar
Second half starts in Dublin.
James Abankwah comes on for Dara O'Shea at the break for the home side.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 46'
After an electric first fifteen minutes, this game has mellowed down. Qatar need to capitalise on the extra man and look for a goal against 10-men of ROI.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 56'
Former Wolves and West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui rings in the changes at the 60th minute mark.
Top goalscorer Almoez Ali is on as well as Ahmed Alaaeldin, Assim Madibo, Karim Boudiaf and Mohamed Al-Manai.
Boualem Khoukhi, Edmilson Junior, Jassem Gaver, Ahmed Fathi and Akram Afif make way.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 60'
ROI are so sloppy at the back as they take far too long to clear their lines. However, the Qataris fail to take advantage and cannot make it count.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 66'
Heimir Hallgrimsson needs to turn to his bench if they are to secure this win tonight. The players on the field look devoid of ideas and tiring with a man down. So far the home team have made a solitary change and it seems the manager could bring some youngsters to bring some energy on the field.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 72'
Corrie Ndaba and Jaden Umeh are brought on for Liam Scales and Chiedozie Ogbene.
Big fifteen minutes for the home team.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 75'
Qatar seemed to have lost the plot. Almoez Ali is shown red for violent conduct. The player seemed to have lost his cool there. Both players now level going into the final ten 12 minutes of play.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 78'
Before their red card, Qatar had a golden opportunity to find a goal but did not trouble the ROI goal. Now, they find themselves a goal and a man down with barely any time remaining.
Republic of Ireland 1-0 Qatar 88'
The Republic of Ireland continue their unbeaten run as they beat Qatar 1-0 in Dublin thanks to that early Nathan Collins header.
