SOUTHEND United defender Harry Kyprianou made his debut for Cyprus' under 21 team tonight but was unable to prevent a 4-0 defeat against Hungary.

Kyprianou started the game and was left suffering mixed emotions at the final whistle.

He tweeted: "Not the result we were hoping for but still honoured to have made my international debut for Cyprus under 21s."

Cyprus will be looking to bounce back against Sweden on Tuesday.
