Hello and welcome to our Bulgaria-Ireland live blog.
We’ll have the full teams shortly, but the fact that Stephen Kenny has made the bold decision to entrust 19-year-old forward Adam Idah with a starting job feels like a metaphor for the more adventurous approach most fans have come to expect. . will be characterized by the new era of Irish football.
Kenny has promised a more attractive soccer brand, but easier said than done.
It will be fascinating to see how much of the new coach’s style will be instantly adopted by players, given that he has only had so little time to work with them so far.
Bulgaria will not be a particularly easy draw, although they are currently ranked 59th in the FIFA rankings, 25 places behind Ireland.
