CRAIG HOPE AT THE AVIVA STADIUM: Lee Carsley got his tenure as England manager underway with a 2-0 win over the Republic of Ireland in Dublin. Goals from Declan Rice and Jack Grealish secured victory - although it was a result that drew stinging criticism from television pundit Roy Keane. All eyes were locked on Carsley - and not just because he chose not to sing the national anthem - and the tactics and players he used. Mail Sport's Craig Hope was on the ground in Dublin to run the rule over the interim Three Lions boss.

England midfielder Declan Rice has revealed the reason why he opted not to celebrate his goal against Ireland and felt the fans in Dublin were justified to boo him.

Interim England boss Lee Carsley defends his decision NOT to sing God Save the King anthem before win over Ireland and insists it doesn't make him 'any less committed'

England interim head coach Lee Carsley followed through his vow not to sing the national anthem on Saturday night - but his job prospects won't be harmed as a result. Carsley insists the furore over his decision not to sing the national anthem did not ruin the proudest day of his career, which ended in victory as Declan Rice and Jack Grealish - who both used to play for the Republic of Ireland - silenced the boo-boys by scoring the goals to fire England on course to victory in Carsley's first game in charge. But the game was overshadowed by the fall-out from Carsley's stance of singing the national anthem, though Mail Sport understands that Carsley's decision not to sing God Save The King will not count against him as the Football Association weigh up whether to hand the interim head coach the job on a permanent basis.
Roy Keane SAVAGES England for 'awful' second half performance in win over Ireland... accusing subs of showing 'arrogance' and players 'playing for themselves'

Roy Keane has delivered a brutal assessment of England's second-half performance in their win over Ireland, branding the side 'awful' while accusing subs of showing 'arrogance' and players 'playing for themselves'. The Three Lions sauntered to a 2-0 win in front of a raucous Dublin crowd this afternoon to give Lee Carsley a taste of victory in his first match in charge. The Nations League tie was taken away from Heimir Hallgrímsson's side in a nightmare first-half which saw two former Ireland internationals, Declan Rice and Jack Grealish, give the home supporters a taste of what they were missing with well-taken finishes. The promising performance, particularly in the first 45 minutes, pushed pre-match controversies surrounding national anthems and pitch-invaders to the margins and meant Carsley became the fourth boss in a row to win his opening fixture at the helm.

Declan Rice had a muted celebration after scoring the opener for England in their Nations League clash against Ireland in Dublin. Rice was on hand to smash home a loose ball inside the box in the 11th minute, with Ireland goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher standing next to no chance of stopping it. But rather than celebrate the first goal of the game, Rice held his hands aloft and refused to celebrate.

SAMI MOKBEL: Declan Rice's decision to play for England , despite having played three times for the Republic of Ireland, was one of football's worst kept secrets when he swapped allegiances. Across the Irish Sea, hearts were also raised. But with anger and fury. It was never Rice's intention to stir up so much emotion; so much hate. He isn't that sort of guy. Of course, he realised there was a fair chance the announcement could rile Irish supporters who believed he was committing the ultimate betrayal. But this was never a decision borne out of trying to create bad blood.

Arsenal fans were not impressed when former Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher defended the official's decision on the Declan Rice incident against Brighton and they will be even less so after an old clip did the rounds on social media. The Gunners dropped points for the first time this season as they drew 1-1 with the Seagulls at the Emirates on Sunday. Mikel Arteta's men were in control with a 1-0 lead before Declan Rice was shown a second yellow card for tapping the ball away as Joel Veltman attempted to take a free-kick shortly after half-time.

ISAAN KHAN AT THE EMIRATES: Once Mikel Arteta had used the word 'amazed' three times to describe his reaction to Declan Rice's sending off, you wondered if he was about to wander off script. Since his 'disgrace' rant at Newcastle last November, the Arsenal manager has been careful when reacting to decisions which have not gone his way. On Saturday, it was not the same Arteta as at St James' Park - there, you could feel the Spaniard's rage - yet Rice's second yellow card irked him.

In the first half, Joao Pedro - who went on to score Brighton's equaliser - kicked the ball away, but referee Christopher Kavanagh chose not to give a yellow card. Though after four minutes in the second period, Rice received a second yellow for nudging the ball away from Joel Veltman as he tried to take a quick free-kick.

Rice was dismissed in the second half after being adjudged by referee Chris Kavanagh to have knocked the ball away as the visitors looked to take a quick free-kick inside their own half, reducing Mikel Arteta's side to 10 men. Brighton duly capitalised on their numerical advantage to clinch a point at the Emirates, Pedro tucking home after David Raya parried Yankuba Minteh's strike. The home crowd were audibly infuriated throughout much of the second half and felt aggrieved with the decision to hand Rice his marching orders on 49 minutes. Rice was shown his first yellow card in the opening period for a heavy challenge on Joel Veltman and later walked after delaying a restart, the Premier League said.

ISAAN KHAN AT THE EMIRATES: An incensed Arsenal were held to a 1-1 draw by Brighton in the Premier League after Declan Rice was controversially sent off for two yellow cards. Kai Havertz had coolly dinked the hosts in front on 38 minutes after Bukayo Saka shrugged off Lewis Dunk and threaded the forward through on goal.

Fabian Hurzeler's side duly capitalised on their man advantage with Joao Pedro tucking home a rebound after David Raya parried out Yankuba Minteh's effort.

ARSENAL 1-1 BRIGHTON - OLIVER HOLT AT EMIRATES STADIUM: Arsenal's season, which has begun amid so much optimism and verve, descended into tumult and acrimony at The Emirates after referee Chris Kavanagh's hugely controversial decision to send off Declan Rice reduced the Gunners to ten men four minutes into the second half of their clash with Brighton & Hove Albion. Arsenal dropped their first two points of the season in front of an enraged sell-out crowd in north London after Kavanagh showed Rice a second yellow card for nudging the ball away from Joel Veltman as Brighton tried to take a quick free kick. The home side, leading through a first half strike from Kai Havertz, conceded an equaliser to Joao Pedro eight minutes later and much of the rest of the game was played against a backdrop of angry chants of 'you're not fit to referee'.

Piers Morgan has slammed the decision to send off Declan Rice in Arsenal's Premier League clash with Brighton. After receiving a first-half booking, Rice was shown a second yellow card shortly after the break despite appearing to be kicked by Joel Veltman when the Brighton defender went to take a free-kick. Replays showed Rice toed the ball away from Rice just before he tried to take the set-piece, but it still looked a very dubious call, and Morgan was having none of it.

He has since undergone seven operations as well as a round each of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Fairs has now been accepted into a medulloblastoma European multitarget metronomic antiangiogenic (MEMMAT) trial in Lille, and his family are aiming to raise £100,000 for the treatment.

The Deputy Prime Minister visited Dagenham on Tuesday following a major fire linked to cladding, and the following afternoon held a roundtable discussion with mayors and fire chiefs about the issue - with a photo shared on X at 6.50pm. Fast forward to 4am the following morning and the scene was rather different, with Ms Rayner clasping a drink in one hand while busting her moves to Gotye's hit song Somebody That I Used to Know.
