It has been eight days since his international debut.
But Sean Maguire's purple patch hasn't ended there.
The former Cork City player has settled in nicely since moving over to Preston during the summer with a few goals to his name making it impossible for Martin O'Neill not to call him up.
And the 23-year-old's run of form continued right up to this weekend with Preston.
Playing mid-table Fulham, Maguire assisted Jordan Hugill's opener as they went up 1-0 in the 18th minute but it didn't stop there.
Seven minutes later the Irish striker went on to get a goal himself, unreal.

However, there is bad news as Maguire came off injured in the 31st minute, although the consensus is it is not thought to be serious.
