SSE Airtricity League side Derry City saw three of their players turn in star performances for Republic of Ireland U21s side last night.

Striker Ronan Curtis was named Man of the Match after he set up the opening two goals in a 3-1 victory over Iceland at Tallaght Stadium.

The first goal Curtis assisted was scored by Derry City teammate Rory Hale inside the first 14 seconds of the game as he slid the ball home from eight yards out.

The final goal of the night came in the 91st minute as Ronan Hale made it a night to remember for the Hale family when he finished over the keeper from 35-yards. Ronan came on during the second-half to ensure both Hale brothers scored on their U21 debut.

Cork City defender Danny Kane also started for Noel King's side with the U21s back in action on Tuesday in a crucial qualifier against Azerbaijan at Tallaght Stadium.

Tickets for the game are just €5 for adults and FREE for U16s, OAPs, FAI Season Ticket holders and Shamrock Rovers Season Ticket holders. Tickets available here...
