Corkman John Egan adds to his pedigree with fine goal for Brentford
Another day, another Irish man staking a claim to an international call-up.
After the chatter about Aston Villa new boy Conor Hourihane deserving an Ireland call up, another Cork man is doing his best to catch Martin O'Neill's eyes.
Brentford centre-back John Egan helped his side to a 2-1 win over Sheffield Wednesday, opening the scoring with a fine header.

Egan rose highest to score a lovely looping header for The Bees, and his impact had fans delighted.
That's what happens when you play @JohnEgan92

With a World Cup qualifier against Wales and a friendly against Iceland coming up in March for Ireland, it may not be too soon before we see Egan in green.
