Republic of Ireland players celebrate their side's first goal scored by team-mate Tyreik Wright during the UEFA European U21 Championship Qualifier win over Bosnia & Herzegovina. It came from another Coventry free kick, with Ireland heavily dependant on set plays as any real attacking fluency was lacking before the opener. Amar Dedic forced Maher to be at full stretch from a free kick but the Bray youngster dealt with it comfortably. The second goal came when Kilkenny played a short corner to Wright. REP OF IRELAND - Maher; Lyons, McEntee, O'Brien, Ferry (O'Connor, 83); Coventry (Johansson, 88), Kilkenny, Tierney; Wright, Kayode (Ferguson, 83), Watson (Noss, 80).
