Keane to miss Wales clash

Robbie Keane looks to be out of the Republic of Ireland’s Carling Nations Cup opener against Wales after picking up a calf injury in West Ham’s 1-0 defeat to Birmingham.

Keane, who scored on his Hammers debut at Blackpool on Wednesday, had to come off with 15 minutes of today’s match at Upton Park remaining after feeling his calf tighten.
