Republic of Ireland started the second period brightly and were the first to see a sight of goal, as Kone-Doherty shifted onto his right foot and unleashed an effort just over the bar from the edge of the box.<\/p>\n
Darius Lipsiuc found himself in a similar area less than a minute later but Tommy Setford was easily able to hold his driven strike.<\/p>\n
The Young Lions then earned another penalty just before the hour mark, after Lewis Hall was brought down by Jad Hakiki while surging into the box.<\/p>\n
This time, Mubama made no mistake from 12 yards to blast home and put England ahead.<\/p>\n
Ireland continued to push for a way back into the contest and came close through Jacob Devaney\u2019s strike, that flew narrowly wide of the post with 15 minutes remaining.<\/p>\n
George then came close to doubling England\u2019s lead as he cut inside from the left but put his shot high and wide.<\/p>\n
The contest became increasingly stretched as the clock ticked into the final ten minutes, and Hakiki saw his snapshot roll inches wide of the far post.<\/p>\n
The contest was then decided in the 90th minute, as George was finally rewarded for his ebullient display with England\u2019s second goal.<\/p>\n
Substitute Sydie Peck found George out wide and the winger cut inside to blast past Jauny and wrap up all three points.<\/p>\n
