Jim Crawford reckons he will struggle to hold onto Southampton ace Will Smallbone at Under-21 level - if he continues to perform like he did against Bosnia last Friday and Montenegro yesterday.
Smallbone found the net once again as Ireland edged tantalisingly close to securing at least a play-off place for next year’s European Championships.
A second three-goal display in three days moved Ireland into second place in Group F, two points ahead of Sweden who play their final game on Thursday.
