Parrott and Idah fire Ireland U-17s to last eight in Euros

Under-17 European Championship finals (Group C)

Ireland U17 manager Colin O’Brien believes his young side will go into Monday’s UEFA Championship quarter-final against the Netherlands full of confidence.

Unlike last year, when the Boys in Green reached the last-eight despite losing 7-0 to Germany, Ireland racked up a second deserved win at St George’s Park on the trot to secure their spot.
