Ireland coach Heimir Hallgrímsson signed a new contract on Thursday ahead of the World Cup qualifying playoffs and kept him through the 2028 European Championship where Dublin is a host city. Hallgrímsson, who led Iceland at its first World Cup in 2018, said there was “big pressure” from the Irish soccer federation to sign before the playoff games. Ireland plays at the Czech Republic next Thursday with the winner advancing to host Denmark or North Macedonia five days later.
