Ireland walloped as Doolin left with plenty to ponder

Ireland U19 0 Slovenia U19 3

This week’s double-header friendly, the second game coming tomorrow at the same venue (1pm), are Paul Doolin’s last warm-up matches for the qualifiers in Sweden against Azerbaijan, Bosnia Herzegovina and the mini-group hosts.

Apart from an early chance for Manchester United striker Sam Byrne which was saved, Ireland were utterly outplayed.
