Finn Azaz says the Republic of Ireland have "real belief" they can exact Nations League revenge on Greece after earning a much-needed win over Finland.
"We will look at the Finland game and build on the positives," said the Middlesbrough midfielder, who made his competitive international debut in the Finland game. The Irish players were booed by sections of their home fans at the Aviva Stadium following the loss to Greece while the travelling supporters voiced their frustration in Helsinki after Nathan Collins' woefully underhit backpass gifted Finland the opening goal.
“We do hear criticism but that's part of the job. You need a strong mentality to ignore the noise and hopefully this win will help us gain even more confidence. We have a lot of belief.”
