Ireland U-16s only draw

Republic of Ireland U-16 0Sweden U-16 0

The crowd of 700 were disappointed as Ireland’s busy build-up play failed to yield the goals it deserved, a long range effort from Lorcan Fitzgerald that shaved the post the closest Ireland came to winning it.

Sweden rarely threatened the Ireland goal though they did have a goal ruled out in the 28th minute when an indirect free kick from captain Andreas Landgren sailed unaided into the net after Ireland goalkeeper David Bevan had slipped.
