Given reveals Irish 'frustration' after failing to crush Faroes

SHAY GIVEN fears the Republic of Ireland's failure to crush the Faroe Islands might return to haunt manager Brian Kerr's side.

Ireland should have had more to show for their undoubted superiority than a 2-0 World Cup qualifying victory at Lansdowne Road over the Group Four minnows.

Other than Robbie Keane's double, which ensured he became the Republic's all-time leading goalscorer with 23 to his credit, Ireland spurned 24 other chances, the majority of which were very good ones.
