The FAI have confirmed this morning that Ireland and Aston Villa goalkeeper Shay Given will sit out training for the next two to three days after picking up a minor knee injury in training on Monday. Given underwent a scan after the incident and has been advised to not train as a precautionary measure.

 

Giovanni Trapattoni has also decided that John O’Shea may not partake in Saturday’s game against Bosnia also for precautionary measures, but has confirmed that John will be fit in time for Euro 2012. The Sunderland defender is undergoing rehabilitative treatment this week on his ankle.
