One call won’t go down too well with fans, we suspect.

For the second game in a row, Martin O'Neill has made a few big calls for the clash with Poland this evening. Shane Long, the hero of the Aviva on Thursday night, starts, as does Darren Randolph, who replaced the injured Shay Given in goal during a famous 1-0 win. Seamus Coleman returns at the expense of Cyrus Christie at right-back, but it is the exclusion of Wes Hoolahan (who didn't train last night) that is likely to cause most debate, with James McClean coming into midfield and Robbie Brady reverting to defence. https://twitter.com/FAIreland/status/653264569859710977 Let's hope the calls work out in Warsaw and the boys in green can put a gloss on what is already a mighty day for Irish sport.
