Kilmarnock midfielder delighted after making his debut for Northern Ireland
The Kilmarnock midfielder made a first start for his country against Slovenia and did not look out of place.
"The way Shea Charles runs that midfield is unbelievable and Isaac Price was great when he came on. Then there's Callum Marshall, Brodie Spencer and Dale Taylor but I could name loads in there.Lyons was cheered on by his girlfriend and family from the stands on what was a very special night for them all, but he admitted it was bitter swett given the result.
"If you take the emotion out of the game it is a really proud moment. As I've said before I feel that international football representing your country is the pinnacle, and it was a dream come true.This is the second international squad Lyons has been called into. But that was to change on Tuesday night as he revealed the moment he realised he was going to start against Slovenia."We had a down day on Sunday and then we trained at the pitch on Monday working on things and I found myself in the starting XI team.
