International Break

Here's one that slipped in under the radar ...

 

Conor Grant was named in the Republic Of Ireland U18 squad that has just taken part in a tournament down in Spain

He featured regularly for their U17s last season so I guess it's a natural step up for him, anyroad ...

 

15/11  v Belgium  2-1 win - he came off the bench as a 87th minute sub, presumably to win his debut cap at this level

17/11  v England  1-3 defeat - started this one, but was subbed off after an hour with his side 1-0 up, tactical masterstroke there?

19/11  v Netherlands  1-0 win - wasn't named in the starting XI, just waiting to see if he played some part as a sub

 

Still, worthy of recognition dontcha think?

oops ...

 

Bulgaria U19  0-3  Greece U19

 

Not the result our boy would've been hoping for  :sad:

Borukov played the whole game (and collected a yellow card) but three goals in 18 second half minutes ruined any chance Bulgaria had of progressing

in this competition

Greece topped the table with three wins, Romania finished second on goal difference

Scotland  3-2  Israel

 

Steven Fletcher's second consecutive start - Scotland's second consecutive win

From 0-1 down early on to 3-1 up and cruising, cue nervy finish

Fletch was brought off in the 87th minute to a rapturous ovation (according to Sky's text updates)

Sounds like he had a good game then  :biggrin:

 

And finally ...

 

Kosovo  4-0  Azerbaijan

 

Back after suspension, Atdhe was named on the bench for this group decider

Came on for the last 20+ minutes with his side 3-0 up and promotion to the 3rd tier a formality

Won't even pretend to guess what's going on here

 

Preslav Borukov's recent hat-trick (v Gibraltar U19) is shown, along with a selection of other clips

 

Rest of it sounds like Bulgarian - with a bunch of indecipherable captions thrown in for good measure  :mellow:
