AARON CONNOLLY HAS been ruled out of tonight’s World Cup qualifier with Serbia through injury.
Connolly started the qualifiers away to Portugal and at home to Azerbaijan in this window – he was withdrawn at half-time of the latter – and is now out of tonight’s clash with injury.
Ronan Curtis will play no part tonight, either: he is not injured, but has been omitted from Ireland’s 23-man matchday squad.

Cyrus Christie, called up to replace the injured Seamus Coleman, is included.
Serbia, meanwhile, have included striker Aleksander Mitrovic in spite of concerns over a facial injury. Mitrovic has scored seven goals in Group A thus far, and is top scorer across all groups in qualifying.
