Tottenham youngster Troy Parrott will make his first start for the Republic of Ireland tomorrow night.

They're taking on New Zealand in a friendly in Dublin.

Manager Mick McCarthy is hoping Parrott can follow in the footsteps of Robbie Keane who was also 17 when he made his debut.

17 year old Parrott has played for the Under 21's and has been on the periphery of the Tottenham Hotspur first team.
