More Republic of Ireland minutes for Albion duo

Callum Robinson and Jayson Molumby both came on in the second-half of the Republic of Ireland’s 1-1 draw with Serbia in FIFA World Cup qualifying. 

Robinson was introduced to the action in the 58th minute, replacing former Preston North End team-mate Alan Browne, while Molumby swapped with Josh Cullen just eight minutes later.

Serbia took an early lead at the Aviva Stadium through Lazio man Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, and only an inspired performance from teenage goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu kept the score at 1-0.

Albion forward Robinson had a hand in his nation’s equaliser inside the final five minutes, delivering a teasing right-wing cross which resulted in a calamitous own goal credited to Nikola Milenkovic.

The draw leaves Ireland fourth in the group, sitting on two points from five games.
