Irish Duo Win Caps - Ipswich Town News
Owen Garvan and Paul Murphy added to their totals of Republic of Ireland international caps on Tuesday evening.
Garvan created the Republic of Ireland U21 side's goal in a 1-1 draw with Germany in Cork while making his eighth appearance at that level.
Striker Murphy came on as a half-time sub for the Republic of Ireland U19s as they lost 2-1 to Russia in the first of two away friendlies. The second game is on Thursday.
The 17-year-old, who has now won six U19 caps, has not returned to Town since the academy's two-week Christmas break having suffered from home sickness during the first half of the season.
The Wexford-born player asked the club if he could remain home for a longer period and is in regular contact with the academy.
Chris Casement, who has extended his loan with Wycombe for a second month, missed out on further U21 international recognition as Northern Ireland's friendly with Wales in Ballymena was called off due to the weather.
