Midfielder Greg Tempest was named Man of the Match in Northern Ireland Under-21’s 1-0 victory over Cyprus.

The Tuesday fixture saw Tempest play 90 minutes in midfield, after recovering from a heavy knock in last week’s encounter with Italy. 

The victory was Northern Ireland Under-21s’ first European Qualification victory.

Elsewhere, winger Jack Grealish played 90 minutes as Republic of Ireland Under-21s fought out a goalless draw away at Montenegro. 

Midfielder Andre Boucaud also impressed after starting in Trinidad & Tobago’s 2-0 triumph in their second friendly with Jamaica. 

All three players will return to Meadow Lane ahead of this weekend’s trip to Shrewsbury Town.
