McGrath and Manning grab brace apiece

Ireland U19s 6 Azerbaijan U19s 0

Two goals apiece from Jamie McGrath and Ryan Manning helped Ireland’s U19s ease to a 6-0 victory over Azerbaijan in the first of this week’s double-header at Tallaght Stadium last night.

After Eoghan Stokes twice went close early on, Dessie Hutchinson made the hosts’ dominance count on 18 minutes by drilling his 20-yard shot into the bottom corner from 20 yards.
