Good enough to beat Zlatan and company?

Ireland manager Martin O'Neill has gone with a pretty tried and tested formula with his team for Ireland's opening clash of Euro 2016 against Sweden. The inclusion of Ciaran Clark ahead of the likes of Richard Keogh and Shane Duffy in defence and Jeff Hendrick in midfield are probably the biggest talking points in the starting XI. Jon Walters, meanwhile, is fit to take his place and will help Wes Hoolahan provide support for Shane Long up front. Here's hoping this side can deliver the three points. https://twitter.com/FAIreland/status/742368224059219968 Come on you boys in green! Ireland team to face Sweden: Darren Randolph; Seamus Coleman, Ciaran Clark, John O'Shea, Robbie Brady; Glenn Whelan, James McCarthy, Jeff Hendrick, Wes Hoolahan; Shane Long, Jon Walters.
