Stephen Kenny believes his Republic of Ireland side's Euro 2024 hopes can be reignited if they are able to produce the 'performance of their lives' against the Netherlands on Sunday.
Stephen Kenny's Republic of Ireland side remain fourth in the table but are only three points behind the second-placed Dutch
Realistically only a shock victory over the Dutch in Dublin can keep alive any slim qualification hopes."We knew that if we beat Holland on Sunday, we're level [on points]. We've got Greece at home and Gibraltar away in October, so [the match against the Netherlands] is that big for us. The Irish arrived in Paris knowing they were up against it because of the quality of both the opposition and the heat, and while they battled manfully throughout, the gulf in class was evident as Kylian Mbappe, Antoine Griezmann and Ousmane Dembele all starred for the hosts.
