  "account": "Troy Parrott's stunning solo goal and penalty proved to be the highlights of Republic of Ireland's 2-2 draw with Austria at the Aviva Stadium. Ireland manager Heimir Hallgrimsson marveled at the in-form striker's brilliance, stating that few players can perform such feats. Parrott began his goal by nutmegging Austria's Philipp Lienhart, then sidestepping teammate David Affengruber before slotting the ball through goalkeeper Florian Wiegele's legs. Cardiff City's Jack Moylan, Parrott's team-mate, expressed his jubilation by placing his hands on his head and smiling triumphantly. Hallgrimsson deemed this goal as one of the finest in Aviva Stadium's history and will be replayed repeatedly for years to come. While Parrott's goal did not secure a win for Ireland, it remains a magical moment in the team's history.",
