IRELAND RETURNED TO winning ways with a second-half salvo in Greece which got their Nations League campaign back on track.
Marissa Sheva, Kyra Carusa, Jessie Stapleton and Amber Barrett were on target in a much-improved second period which ensured a Greek tragedy would not follow the recent Slovenia shocker. Katie McCabe was initially held in reserve due to a calf strain, but helped change the game as Carla Ward’s side bounced back in sunny Crete.
