Stephen Kenny hailed teenager Troy Parrott for saving his blushes with a two-goal delivery which was the turning point in transforming a potential loss to Andorra into a 4-1 win. Kenny admitted that the first-half display was well below par in the midfield areas. And to concede a goal like that is disappointing because we pride ourselves on not conceding from a set-piece like that. But regardless of who scored it was just important that we scored goals because we had a period when we couldn’t score. Meanwhile, two-goal hero Troy Parrott admitted his relief after his goals helped Ireland overcome a possible embarrassment away to Andorra and come away with a 4-1 win.
