Givens names unchanged U21 squad

Eircom League trio Liam Kearney, Kevin Doyle and Daryl Murphy have all retained their places in Don Given's Republic of Ireland Under-21 squad for the October 8 clash with France.

Givens has kept faith with the panel which earlier this month opened the UEFA U21 Championship qualifiers with a 3-0 win over Cyprus before crashing 4-2 to Switzerland in Berne.
