O'Shea successor
England terror Hallgrimsson new Ireland team manager
The Icelander Heimir Hallgrimsson is Ireland's new soccer team manager. The 57-year-old replaces John O'Shea, who was appointed ad interim in November, as Ireland's soccer association announced.
Hallgrimsson celebrated remarkable success as Iceland's national coach from 2013 to 2018. He led the team to the quarter-finals at Euro 2016 together with Lars Lagerbäck from Sweden, who had the same rights. England were sensationally defeated 2:1 in the round of 16.
In the months that followed, Iceland also managed to qualify for a World Cup for the first time under Hallgrimsson. Most recently, the Icelander was under contract as national coach in Jamaica. He resigned after three defeats at the current Copa America.
