Ireland soccer

FORMER Irish rugby international Sean Cronin has made a goal-scoring return to the soccer fields of Limerick. The 36 year old found the net at the weekend ...

"That's the road (coaching) I want to go down so lets see how it pans out in the next 18-months or so. We will see how it - it will be challenging but I’m excited to get going," said Cronin of the new Energia All-Ireland League season. It brought back good memories and we’ve got two wins there - it’s a good omen for me!" "I was actually so relieved because I’ve actually had a few strikes and they haven’t gone anywhere near the goal over the last two or three games! But Cronin was to make his name on the rugby fields - playing for Ireland on 72 occasions including the 2014 and the 2015 Six Nations winning squads and the Grand Slam winning side of 2018. I’ve had to take more of a holding role," he joked.
