KERR'S YOUTHS WIN AGAIN

Brian Kerr's Under 19 side followed up Tuesday's 3-0 victory over Latvia with a 2-0 win against Austria, to set up a top of the table clash with Croatia in their bid to qualify for the European Championships next summer.

A first half strike from Paddy McCarthy and a Togatet own-goal after 51 minutes gave Kerr's youths their second victory on the trot and sets up a nail biting clash with Croatia, who also have six points following their 4-1 win against Latvia, on Thursday in Cobh.
