Declan Rice won the Young Player of the Year, as previously announced last week, less than 24 hours before he was called up to the England squad. He was not pictured receiving his award.

After the rugby heroics on Saturday, Martin O’Neill last night admitted that his Irish team have "a lot to live up to" as they begin a week of preparations ahead of the meeting with Poland next Sunday.

Kevin Doyle last night admitted he was poised to join Celtic on transfer deadline day.

Ireland’s Player of the Year is determined to be a player at the Euros.
