Imps forwards Brennan Johnson, Anthony Scully and Zack Elbouzedi represented their respective Countries in International fixtures last week.

Anthony Scully and Zack Elbouzedi both started for Republic of Ireland’s U21’s in their European Championships qualifying match against Iceland.

Scully featured for the opening forty-five minutes and thought he'd got his name on the scoresheet, only to see his effort disallowed as he was judged to have been offside.

Zack Elbouzedi also featured at the Tallaght Stadium and had a chance to score on the edge of half-time, but his shot was well saved by the Iceland keeper.
