McGoldrick Ruled Out of Ireland Qualifier
Tuesday, 6th Jun 2017 19:31

Blues striker David McGoldrick has been ruled out of the Republic of Ireland’s World Cup qualifier against Austria in Dublin on Sunday due to injury.

The 29-year-old, who has won six full caps without scoring an international goal, missed training this morning due to what manager Martin O'Neill described as "a niggle behind his knee" and he subsequently underwent a scan.

The FAI has now announced that McGoldrick will not be involved in Sunday’s match and has left the camp.

The Town frontman played the full 90 minutes of Thursday's 3-1 friendly defeat to Mexico in the US but was an unused sub in Sunday's 3-1 home victory over Uruguay.

Steelmonkey added 19:51 - Jun 6 Oh great, here we go again I can see the headlines now " McGoldrick to miss the start of the season, due to needing surgery on his knee", "expected to be out for six weeks". I feel the misery of next season starting already, hope I'm wrong.

Daleyitfc added 20:19 - Jun 9 I'm guessing these lazy lethargic players like McGoldrick are also lazy lethargic trainers, hence why they are never really fit.
