O’Neill relishing Scotland clashes
Martin O’Neill admitted it was ironic that his Republic of Ireland side will have to slug it out with Scotland for Euro 2016 qualification.
It was the FAI and Scottish football association which proposed the expansion of the European Championship agreed by UEFA member nations back in 2009, but it seems unlikely that both countries will qualify directly given they were drawn in Group D along with Germany, Poland and Georgia, as well as UEFA’s newest member Gibraltar.
