That is an expensive bloody point.
The Republic of Ireland have drawn 0-0 at home with Wales but, a night that struck the right notes early on with the tributes to the late Ryan McBride, finished on a sour note as captain Seamus Coleman suffered an horrific injury.
The Everton full-back appeared to badly break his leg following a reckless, red card tackle from Neil Taylor.
With the 28-year-old lying stricken on the Aviva Stadium turf, his team-mate Shane Long came over and gave him a hug.

Not thinking about the result, the injury to Seamus Coleman is far more important. Looked horrific. Best wishes to him @FAIreland @Everton
