West Brom’s Jayson Molumby alerted officials to alleged racism in Ireland’s clash with Israel

West Bromwich Albion midfielder Jayson Molumby alerted match officials to alleged racist abuse directed at striker Adam Idah during the Republic of Ireland's 3-0 Nations League win over Israel in Debrecen, Hungary. The Football Association of Ireland is currently investigating the incident, which occurred during a match ordered to be played behind closed doors. Idah scored Ireland's second goal in the contest.

Match officials stated after the game that they did not hear any racist chanting, preventing a standard UEFA investigation from being initiated under normal protocols. In response, the FAI is reviewing high-quality pitchside footage and microphone audio to examine the claims. The fixture also saw Irish captain Dara O'Shea refuse to shake hands with Israel's Manor Solomon before kickoff.
