The Indy Football Podcast: Ireland dreams, Northern Irish despair and an analysis of England's young guns

Join host Ed Malyon, chief sports writer Jonny Liew and reporter Matt Murphy for another footballing debrief

It was heartbreak for Northern Ireland as their hopes of qualifying for next summer’s World Cup were dashed over the weekend – but was it an undeserved outcome given the controversy surrounding referee Ovidiu Hategan’s decision?

The Republic of Ireland could be joining their neighbours in heading for the exit door should they fail to get the required result against Denmark tomorrow night. Do they have it in them to reach their first World Cup since 2002?

Meanwhile, England put in an encouraging performance against Germany on Friday night, with youngster Ruben Loftus-Cheek notably impressing. What does the future hold for young guns such as Loftus-Cheek and how will England fare against Brazil tomorrow night?

Join host Ed Malyon, chief sport writer Jonny Liew and reporter Matt Murphy as they look back over the weekend’s international action while also delving into England’s future.
