Trap defers decision on Keane's strike partner

Giovanni Trapattoni has delayed making a decision on who will start in attack for Ireland tomorrow night against Estonia.

Trapattoni has taken the unusual step of naming all but one of his starting line-up for the first-leg in Tallinn, but he has yet to choose between Jonathan Walters and Simon Cox as Robbie Keane's strike partner.

Despite an indication at the start of the week that he would opt for Jon Walters, Trap has now confirmed that he will wait until tomorrow afternoon to finalise his team sheet.

The rest of the team is along expected lines, with Stephen Kelly, Richard Dunne, Sean St Ledger and Stephen Ward forming the defence in front of Shay Given.

The midfield will consist of Glen Whelan and Keith Andrews, flanked by Damien Duff and Aiden McGeady, with Keane partnered by one of Cox or Walters in attack.
