"We learnt a lot about the opposition and they showed real quality on the day so they'll be looking to get one over us and will be determined to make sure we don't win over there so we've got to be right at it. "The quality of the goals last time were outstanding. Luke's goal in particular was incredible but him and Eoin are two lads full of confidence and that is great for the group. "We want to build on that win and get another one but this time, away from home which definitely adds that extra motivation. It is our first-ever trip to Wales as an amateur international team so it would be great to make the first one a victory."Republic of Ireland SquadGoalkeepers: Brendan O'Connell (Rockmount), Gary Cunningham (Westport United) Defenders: Adam Crowley (Rockmount), Jack McMullen (Home Farm), Chris Smith (Aisling Annacotty), Jack Parke (Bonagee United), Aaron Humphries (Kilbarrack United), Lee McColgan (Cockhill Celtic), Glen Daly (Malahide United).Midfielders: Stephen Chambers (Killester Donnycarney), Eoin Murphy (Rockmount), Luke Casey (Rockmount), Nathan Broderick (Rockmount), Mikey Fox (Salthill Devon), AJ O'Connor (Fairview Rangers).Forwards: Eoin Hayes (Newmarket Celtic), Simon Falvey (Avondale United), Shane Stritch (Bluebell United).Amateur International - Fixture03/09 - Wales v Republic of Ireland, Colwyn Bay FC, KO 2.30pm
