City strikers Idah and Pukki feature in head-to-head international fixture

Adam Idah and Teemu Pukki both earned themselves places in their respective starting line-ups as the Republic of Ireland hosted Finland in the UEFA Nations League on Sunday evening.

Adam Idah made his second-successive start for the Republic of Ireland national team after making his debut against Bulgaria earlier in the week, whilst Pukki led the line for the Huuhkajat for the 82nd time in their 1-0 win.

The game was stuck at deadlock until the 62nd minute, when Fredrik Jensen made an instant impact as a sub by scoring the opener for the Finnish side, with Pukki setting up the pre-assist.
