Good evening and welcome to another Irish Independent live blog as the Republic of Ireland travel to Belgium for the second-leg of their Uefa Nations League play-off. My name is Ultán Corcoran, and I will be keeping you updated as the action unfolds on the pitch. Den Dreef Stadium is the venue this evening as the Girls in Green battle it out just east of the Belgian capital. The game is being televised on RTE2 and the RTE Player, with kick-off is set for 7.30pm.
