Ciaron Brown's first international goals came as a pair to help a young Northern Ireland side stun Ukraine 3-0 and go clear at the top of Nations League Group B2.

Northern Ireland earned a dominant 3-0 victory against Ukraine in UEFA Nations League Group B2 at Stadion Antona Malatinskeho in Trnava, Slovakia. Oxford defender Ciaron Brown scored his first two international goals, while Isaac Price also found the net to send Michael O'Neill's side to the top of the group with seven points.
Brown opened the scoring in the ninth minute and added his second just past the hour mark following a goalkeeping error by Ukraine's Dmytro Riznyk. Nineteen-year-old debutant Kieran Morrison contributed two assists as Northern Ireland fielded their youngest post-war starting lineup with an average age of 22.
