Nathan Collins sets sights on being the best after scoring worldie for Ireland against Ukraine

Nathan Collins said he "wants to be the best there is" after scoring a superb opener in Ireland's 1-1 draw with Ukraine in Lodz.

Collins, 21, pounced on the loose ball inside Ukraine's half, evaded two challenges and scored confidently with the outside of his right boot from inside the penalty area.

It was the Leixlip man's first goal at senior level for his country and capped a man of the match performance in Ireland's fourth and final Nations League game of the summer.
