Super troopers

Best wishes to the seven Cliftonville players participating in this year’s SuperCupNI.

The international youth tournament, which kicked off with Celtic’s defeat of Manchester United in Saturday’s Under 19 curtain-raiser, swings into gear with a full programme of fixtures today, when Reds sextet Paul McAdorey, Dylan Snodden (pictured), Peter McKiernan, Conor Farrelly and Colin Oppong will be part of the County Antrim squad that will take on Brazilian outfit Audax in their Premier Section opener at The Riada Stadium in Ballymoney.

Cliftonville goalkeeper Dylan Stewart will, meanwhile, captain County Down when they face Newcastle United at The Ballymena Showgrounds.
