Ciaron Brown's commanding international form is a timely boost for Oxford United. The defender kept two clean sheets for Northern Ireland in the UEFA Nations League, earning widespread praise from supporters and pundits.
Brown was a standout in a 0-0 draw with Hungary at Windsor Park on Monday night, following a 1-0 victory over Georgia last Friday. He played the full 90 minutes in both matches, forming part of a back three that was singled out for its resilience.
His international consistency mirrors his importance at club level, where he has played every minute of Oxford United's first six League One games this season. Brown has contributed to two clean sheets and three wins for a side currently 10th in the table with 11 points.
Manager Aaron Ramsey will welcome Brown's sharpness back into a defence that has conceded just seven goals this campaign. The team's next challenge is an away trip to face Notts County on 10 October. Check the upcoming schedule on our fixtures page.
