Jamie Mullins caught the eye amid a convincing victory.

BOHEMIANS YOUNGSTER Jamie Mullins’ goal was the pick of the bunch as Ireland U19s beat their Icelandic counterparts 3-0 in the first of two friendlies between the teams.

Tom Mohan’s side took the lead midway through the first half.

After a run down the right by Harry Vaughan, Sam Curtis’ ball into the box caused problems and Jad Hakiki was able to poke home from close range.
