FAI unclear over possible sanctions if game not played

Republic of Ireland could have faced "undetermined" sanctions had they not played their Nations League match against Israel on Sunday, according to FAI president Paul Cooke.

The players did not shake hands with each other and the Republic of Ireland squad bowed their heads when Israel's anthem was played before their 3-0 win in Hungary.

The two Nations League fixtures, being played at neutral venues, have been embroiled in controversy since February when the two teams were drawn to play each other in Group B3.
