Armstrong, Lawlor, Giles, Mafico and Twose all starting for Wales under 19s against Turkey.

1-0, Issaka with the goal who has played a fair bit for Plymouth this season

Clear that, along with Crew and Biancheri, Lawlor & Giles are considered a key part of this team, started each game

Finished 3-1 to Wales, Turkey equalised, but goals by Biancheri and Myles sealed the win

Some good results there to be fair. Like the look of Lawlor a lot.

Very confident on the ball

Looks like there's a fair reason to be optimistic with this bunch, imagine a lot will be in the u21s for the next campaign

Odd game from what I saw. Turkey looked to be taking control in the second half. Crew went off, which the commentators made a big deal of, but out of nowhere Wales started opening them up with counter attacks. Turkey needed a win, I guess they just committed too many forward but Wales took advantage well and played with a lot of spirit.

Good night for our lads overall from what I could make out. Twose was a bit anonymous and got subbed at half time but Mafico was very busy and did some good stuff, Lawlor and Giles looked comfortable (maybe too comfortable a couple of times in Lawlor's case but he definitely seems to have something about him) and Armstrong made a couple of outstanding saves. The reason that Crew's subbing wasn't a problem was that Troy Perrett came on for him and put in an excellent cameo. Plenty to be encouraged by, Kpakio would surely have been there too but for his injury.

Might have a look at it later, is it on the FAW site or S4C?

Kpakio usually their starter, clearly better than Parker & Giggs from what I've seen
