another Sean scored twice for the U18 schoolboys today
Northern Ireland’s Under-18 Schoolboys bounced back from a
defeat to an Australia U18/U19 Schoolboys team last month with a
resounding 5-0 win against Jersey U18s.
Competition
Youth international friendly
Scoreline
Jersey U18 Select 0-5 Northern Ireland U18 Schoolboys
Scorers
Sean Brown (30’, 47’), Michael Morgan (38’), Charlie Chapman
(60’), Luca Doherty (88’)
Venue
Springfield Stadium, St Helier, Jersey
Date
Monday 6 February 2023
Team News
The first of two friendlies against Jersey teams this week, the
game was part of ongoing preparations for this year’s Centenary
Shield.
Before kick-off both teams observed a 30-seconds applause in
memory of Frankie Wilson, who passed away in October. Frankie
managed the Northern Ireland U18 Schoolboys team from 2014 until
2022.
Manager Simon Nicks made six changes to the 11 who started
against Australia at the Blanchflower Stadium in east Belfast
last month.
Ryan Kerr replaced Rian Brown between the sticks, while Charlie
Chapman, Sean Brown and Joshua Ness all started after being on
the bench last time out. And making their first appearances for
the team this year were Corey Smith and Kyle McCloskey.
Nicks’ charges will play a Jersey U21 Select tomorrow (8
February) in their final warm-up match before the Centenary
Shield kicks off next month.
How it happened
Jersey started brightly with Wolves-bound Carvalho creating
plenty of openings for the home side.
The Northern Ireland defence, in which Kyle McCloskey and Callan
Farley were outstanding, stood firm and Northern Ireland keeper
Ryan Kerr expertly dealt with a number of dangerous crosses.
Michael Morgan waltzed through the home defence and smashed a
shot against the post prior to Northern Ireland opening the
scoring on 30 minutes.
Corey Smith turned his marker and fired in a shot which was
blocked, however the ball fell to Sean Brown and he netted from
close range.
Eight minutes later the visitors went two up. A clever back-heel
from Brown allowed Morgan to drive into the box and the captain
slammed the ball into the corner of the net.
Half-time: Jersey U18s 0-2 Northern Ireland U18 Schoolboys
Two minutes after the restart Brown produced a screamer for his
second goal of the game.
Smith rolled a free-kick into his path and Brown netted with a
thunderous drive into the top corner to put Northern Ireland
firmly in the driving seat.
Jake Martin came off the subs bench to produce a fine cross for
Charlie Chapman to tuck in goal number four. It was a great team
goal.
Another substitute, Luca Doherty, made his mark on 88 minutes to
make it 5-0. It was another fine finish after a smart turn
allowed him to rifle the ball home.
Full-time: Jersey U18s 0-5 Northern Ireland U18 Schoolboys

Northern Ireland U18 Schoolboys: Ryan Kerr, Callan Farley, Ben
Walker, Adhamh Towe, Corey Smith, Michael Morgan (captain),

Its a bit much imo for anyone to be criticising the young lad
just because he may want to opt for the ROI. Its his decision at
the end of the day, its not like he has messed us about.
If he opts for them then so be it. It wont be the end of the
world.

On the IL show last night was Jim Magilton, who said he got a
phone call from MoN to watch the Glentoran-Cliftonville game at
the weekend, probably to watch McGinn and McMeniman.
Obvioulsy Sean Moore had a good game and scored 2 great goals
and it was Moore's performance that Magilton was talking about
on the show. I wouldn't be surprised if we see Moore being
fast-tracked into the full squad (to keep RoI hands off him)

My query would be we could have another McClean issue (albeit
Young Sean seems to have his head screwed on).
He may be called up, will probably withdraw stating uncertainty
around his international future, whipping up tension and media
nonsense.

Fair enough, doesn't want to play for us and now opens the door
for someone else.
