The FAI has confirmed that Robbie Keane has been ruled out of Tuesday’s FIFA World Cup qualifier against Austria in Aviva Stadium. 

A scan this morning confirmed that Robbie is suffering from calf strain after Friday’s game against Sweden. Wolves striker Kevin Doyle has been called up in place of Keane.

The manager has spoken to Doyle, and he will link up with the squad in time for training in Malahide tomorrow morning.
