Republic of Ireland's Troy Parrott said he "wasn't good enough in front of goal" during their goalless friendly with North Macedonia at the Aviva Stadium. Parrott had a goal ruled out for offside at the end of the first half before he was denied by the post after the restart. The AZ Alkmaar striker was aiming to become the first player to score in four successive games for the Republic of Ireland since Robbie Keane in 2011. I had a lot of chances to score and I didn't," Parrott said after the match. "It wasn't good enough in front of goal."
