Denise O’Sullivan’s winner in the 88th minute decided a game that was stopped for an hour due to torrential rain in Shkodër – and Ireland’s fourth win in four games under interim head coach Eileen Gleeson proved enough to secure their place in League A as Northern Ireland held Hungary to a 1-1 draw in Belfast.
