Shay Given: Consistent and efficient as always from the Donegal man. 7
Stephen Kelly: Was literally caught in the lights early on but recovered to give a steady performance. 6
Stephen Ward: Diligent in defence but no attacking threat. Excellent tackle in a difficult first half period. 6
Sean St Ledger: Some uncomfortable moments countered with some committed clearances. 6
Richard Dunne: A rock as usual though at times he fell into the general Irish malaise with the ball. 7
Glenn Whelan: A good shift in the coalface but ponderous in possession. 6
Damien Duff: Flashes of class and his usual high work-rate. 7
Keith Andrews: Tremendous run and climb for the opening goal. Tidy otherwise. 8
Jonathan Walters: Intelligent in possession and a pesky physical presence. Deserved his goal. 7
Robbie Keane: On the fringes initially, but two goals, an assist and forced the sending off. Remains Ireland’s go to man. 8
Aiden McGeady: Can be infuriating, but a constant threat. 7
Substitution: Stephen Hunt: His usual busy self 6
Keith Fahey: N/A
Simon Cox: N/A
