Hutton: Go out and enjoy it

Derry City boss, Peter Hutton, insists local players competing in Europe should "enjoy every minute of the experience" as he prepares his troops for the visit of Shakhtyor Soligorsk, from Belarus, to the Brandywell this evening.

And he pointed to the experience of his captain, Cliff Byrne, who, at 31, has played at a good level in England but is currently competing in Europe for the first time.

“He’s enjoying the experience, so I think it’s important local players enjoy every minute of it as so many top players never get the opportunity to play against Continental opposition,” claimed the Brandywell boss.
