Ireland drawn in Group B in EURO 2024

The Republic of Ireland has been drawn against the Netherlands, France, Greece and Gibraltar in Group B in their UEFA EURO 2024 qualifying campaign.

The draw, which took place in Frankfurt earlier today, sees Ireland placed in a difficult group as they bid to qualify for the finals tournament in Germany in 2024.

Speaking after the draw, Ireland manager Stephen Kenny admitted it was a tough draw but is looking forward to the challenge and some huge nights at the Aviva Stadium.

"It's a tough group but they're very exciting games and a challenge we'll look forward to," said Ireland manager Stephen Kenny.

"We're looking forward to playing France and the Netherlands home & away, these will great occasions and Greece and Gibraltar will also present us with a real challenge as well. It's a group where teams can take points off each other so we can take confidence from that.

"To finish in the top two, we'll have to achieve something extraordinary but that has to be our ambition to do that. We've shown a capacity to get results against tough opposition with the likes of Portugal, Serbia and Belgium. We can take real encouragement from that."
