O’Neill: McGoldrick Seems to Be Fine - Ipswich Town News

Republic of Ireland manager Martin O’Neill says Blues striker David McGoldrick appears to be “fine” having undergone a scan on his hamstring injury.

The 29-year-old came off during the second half of Town’s 3-1 defeat to Bristol City at Portman Road on Saturday and was a big doubt for Ireland’s World Cup qualifiers against Moldova and Wales.

However, the Blues frontman was included in the reduced squad named earlier this afternoon and O’Neill said he "seems to be fine" at a press conference.

McGoldrick was one of a number of players in the Irish squad to sit out training today.
