Ireland have an otherwise fully-fit squad for tomorrow’s Euro 2024 qualifier in Portugal.
Gavin Cooney reports from Estadio Algarve, Portugal ANDREW MORAN HAS been ruled out of making a senior debut against Gibraltar tomorrow night through injury.
Gibraltar are staging the game at the Estadio Algarve in Faro, as their ground is under construction. The stands will be approximately 90% empty, with the crowd forecast to be in the region of 3500 people. Across this week and next month’s window, Ireland need at least two of three following scenarios: That Wales knock out Turkey; that Bosnia recover and finish second behind Portugal and, crucially, ahead of Luxembourg and Slovakia; and that Israel finish ahead of Romania.
Given Gibraltar have lost every qualifier they have ever played, the alternative is unthinkable. Nathan Collins certainly hasn’t been sidelined for his performance against Greece on Friday, with Kenny saying after that game his half-time substitution was tactical, having earlier vented his frustration at the fact Giorgos Giakoumakis was left unmarked in the box to score the opening goal.
