A DOUBLE FROM captain Robbie Keane, which took his international tally to 67, and goals from Cyrus Christie and Shane Long saw the Republic of Ireland past Gibraltar in Faro. Martin O’Neill’s side next play Georgia in Dublin on Monday.

“There is still a long way to go but we got the job done,” said Keane. “Monday will be a massive game for us.”
