David Forde 7 – Had little or nothing to do but showed a safe pair of hands on the rare occasions he was called upon.
Seamus Coleman 7 – Didn’t get forward as much as he could have in the first half but made up for that with a nice ball for the second goal and was a threat after the break.
John O’Shea 6 – A quiet night for him and his central defensive partner.
Sean St Ledger 6 -With O’Shea, the Leicester defender wasn’t given much work to do by the Faroes.

Marc Wilson 6 – Solid performance from the Stoke man and got the ball out to McGeady early. Came off injured.
Aiden McGeady 8 – Ireland’s biggest threat in the first half and ran his marker ragged on the left flank.
Glenn Whelan 6 – Shielded the Irish defence and never stopped working for the team.
Wes Hoolahan 8 – Wanted the ball at every opportunity, had a hand in two goals and made Ireland tick on his competitive debut.
Simon Cox 6 – It’s clear to everyone but Trap that he’s not a right winger.
Jon Walters 6 – Put himself about and didn’t give the Faroes a minute’s peace. Replaced by Conor Sammon.
Robbie Keane 9 – A hat-trick on the night he becomes Ireland’s most capped player.
Substitutes
Conor Sammon6 – Set up the third goal.
James McClean 5 – Didn’t make a huge impact upon his introduction.
