RETURN OF TROY

Troy Parrott set to boost Ireland U21 hopes against Sweden tonight

The teenage sensation will bolster Stephen Kenny’s attack at Tallaght Stadium.

TROY PARROTT IS in line to lead the attack for the Republic of Ireland U21s in their vital Euro 2021 qualifier with Sweden tonight.

The Dubliner has linked up with Stephen Kenny’s squad this morning after being an unused substitute for the senior side’s 1-1 draw against Denmark at Aviva Stadium last night.

Parrott’s return is a huge boost for Kenny’s side as it was the 17-year-old who inspired the recent 3-1 win away to the Swedes, when he netted twice after being sprung from the bench.

Ireland are currently top of Group 1 and victory at Tallaght Stadium tonight (kick off 8pm) will keep their noses in front of Italy in second spot.
