WATCH: Sean St Ledger and Kevin Doyle are tearing it up in Colorado as they combine for winner

A goal made in the Aviva

Martin O’Neill, are you watching?

A recall may be on the cards for Sean St Ledger as the defender has taken to his new club like a duck to water.

The Colorado Rapids’ new signing set up the winning goal when Pablo Mastroeni’s side hosted Houston Dynamo overnight.

St Ledger burst through the defence on a surging run before finding a perfect cross from the byline with just ten minutes remaining in the game.

St Ledger’s ball found the noggin of Kevin Doyle who nodded home for his third MLS goal of the season and gave Colorado the 2-1 win.

St Ledger hasn’t featured under Martin O’Neill since the Derry man took charge of Ireland but the fact that St Ledger is clearly a winger stuck in a centre-back’s body should get O’Neill thinking.
