IFA want recognition for sharpshooter Healy

THE IRISH Football Association are calling for David Healy to be rewarded by UEFA for breaking Davor Suker’s 12-year record in a European Championship qualifying campaign.

Healy goes into the final match against Spain on Wednesday on 13 goals, three ahead of Croatia’s Eduardo da Silva.

The Northern Ireland and Fulham striker set a new best at the weekend with a glorious winner in the 2-1 victory over Denmark.
