The Football Association of Ireland is investigating whether forward Adam Idah was racially abused by Israel supporters during Sunday's 3-0 Uefa Nations League victory. Midfielder Jayson Molumby reported hearing abusive chanting to match officials, but they did not hear anything themselves. The FAI is now gathering high-quality footage and audio from pitchside microphones to determine if abuse occurred.

A panel will analyze the evidence and, if warranted, will ask Uefa to launch a formal investigation. Idah was unaware of the alleged abuse and is being supported by teammates. The match, held in Debrecen, Hungary, faced protests from Irish fans and politicians over playing Israel.

Over 73,000 people have been killed in Gaza, according to Hamas-run health ministry figures. The FAI has requested Uefa keep the teams apart in future draws. Players wore black armbands and did not shake hands or exchange pennants.

Goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu withdrew from the squad due to his principles but returned for the match against Austria.
