federer has defeated a battling alexander zverev. good evening. we have a busy programme ahead, but we'll start with football where the republic of ireland's world cup dream is over. they were thrashed in the second leg of their play off qualifer against demark 5—1. our correspondentjoe wilson is in dublin for us. joe, a great start from ireland but they couldn't hold on against a brilliant denmark tonight. yes, it's funny, i guess we are reflecting really the republic of ireland scoring too soon and we wondered if they would score a goal. being defensively strong has been the reason for their success in getting to this stage and it was 0—0 in the first leg in copenhagen but they had the perfect start here, a free kick after five minutes and the ball was floated in, a mistake by a danish defender, he miskicked his clearance but there was shane duffy in. —— shane duffy. ireland were caught in two minds. a mistake by christy, defending the post, just one of the errors we saw. ireland were behind by half—time and then it was the eriksen show, three goals from him, best player on the pitch, one of the most talented attacking midfielders in europe and he
