Devaney’s 90-minute Ireland test adds to Hibernian development

Jacob Devaney played 90 minutes and helped Ireland Under-21s to a 3-1 win over England, winning six duels and making a key pass in a performance that adds to the Manchester United midfielder’s development during his loan at Hibernian.

The Peoples Person highlighted Devaney’s contribution as Ireland claimed a famous victory. The United prospect is spending this season at Hibernian after impressing during the final six months of the previous campaign at St Mirren.

For United, the headline is not simply that Devaney featured in a high-profile international fixture. He completed the full match and contributed at both ends of the pitch, giving his loan experience a further competitive test.
