McAteer, who netted his first Premier League goal for us last month, was this time on the scoresheet for Heimir Hallgrímsson’s side at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.

It took only 21 minutes for the Foxes winger to find the back of the net, converting at the second time of asking, before Crystal Palace forward Ismaïla Sarr levelled late on.

Meanwhile, Wout Faes was a starter for the Red Devils away to North Macedonia as they began their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification campaign in Group J at the National Arena Toshe Proeski in Skopje.

The hosts had already collected four points from their opening two games but were behind when Faes’ side went ahead through Maxim De Cuyper.

North Macedonia thought they were level when defender Bojan Ilievski scored but VAR intervened with an offside – they finally had their equaliser, though, when Ezgjan Alioski was on target to deny Faes and Belgium three points with only four minutes to play.

A little later in the evening, Bilal El Khannouss started for Morocco, again in an international friendly, against Tunisia at the Grand Stade.

El Khannouss played 58 minutes in Fès, where recent UEFA Champions League winner and Paris Saint-Germain defender Achraf Hakimi, and then Ayoub El Kaabi, netted late to win it for Morocco.

Earlier in the day, Development Squad striker Chris Popov was captain for Wales Under-21s in their 4-0 defeat by Norway Under-21s – the visitors scoring twice in each half during the international friendly.
