Three Lions were in cruise control as familiar faces delivered in Dublin

Declan Rice and Jack Grealish returned to haunt the Republic of Ireland as Lee Carsley's first match as interim England manager ended in a comfortable Nations League victory in Dublin.

Saturday's sold-out Aviva Stadium clash marked the start of new eras for both teams as Heimir Hallgrimsson led the hosts against a nation beginning life after Gareth Southgate. England impressed in their first match since losing July's Euro 2024 final, with Rice and Grealish setting Carsley on course for an impressive 2-0 win over the nation he played for 40 times as a player.

The interim boss stayed silent during 'God Save the King', just as he had indicated he would before the match against the country his goalscorers previously represented. Rice won three senior caps for the Republic and fired England into an early lead, which former Ireland Under-21 international Grealish added to during a one-sided first half. "Two nil to the Irish boys" sung visiting fans on an afternoon when Hallgrimsson's hosts never looked like getting back into it as Carsley enjoyed a winning start to life in the Nations League second tier.
