Young guns impress as Ireland come from behind to beat New Zealand

In the end, it was All White on the night for the Boys in Green after a come-from-behind win on an evening of firsts for two strikers.

It is something that has weighed heavy on Sean Maguire’s mind since making his debut here against Moldova at the tail end of 2017. Robbie Brady had the most to gain here on his return after injury, but the fact he played the full 90 minutes suggests he may not be in the mix to start the big one.For a team crying out for goals going into a win-or-bust showdown, it was no harm seeing the one area that has caused concern spring to life.

But even his own penalty appeals, after an exchange with Boxall, was half-hearted stuff and the Welsh referee was having none of it. Alas, that goal was an equaliser and not an opener as Ireland had already conceded against the run of play on the half hour.
