@bbcsport: Republic of Ireland manager Heimir Hallgrimsson was asked by a journalist, who refused to give up the microphone, about alleged racism by Irish players during last Sunday's 3-0 win over Israel in Hungary.    The news conference was brought to a close at that point by Football Association of Ireland communications manager Kieran Crowley, who said those allegations were "completely untrue".
