The 2011 Nations Cup (also known as the Carling Nations Cup for sponsorship reasons) was the inaugural round-robin football tournament between the Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, Scotland, and Wales national teams. The first set of two games were played in Dublin in February, with the remaining four games played in May 2011. It was won by the Republic of Ireland, who won all three of their games without conceding a goal.
The newly rebuilt Aviva Stadium was chosen to host all six games of the 2011 tournament.
All times are local.
