Ruel Sotiriou receives Cyprus U21 call-up

Leyton Orient forward, Ruel Sotiriou, has travelled to Larnaca to link-up with the Cyprus U21 team ahead of their match against Norway U21 this week.

The 19-year-old, who is currently on loan at Dover Athletic, scored the winning goal at the weekend in his temporary sides’ FA Cup victory over Southend United. He came on for his debut on 81 minutes before firing an effort from a tight angle into the top corner to spark jubilant scenes at Crabble.

He has made several appearances for the U21 side, scoring in the defeat to Netherlands U21 in September. He will miss Saturday’s game against Yeovil Town for Andy Hessenthaler’s side as a result.

What a moment for Dover Athletic 🙌
