James McClean: Roy Keane would have killed me if I'd missed target

James McClean fired the Republic of Ireland to a precious World Cup qualifying victory in Austria to spare himself a showdown with Roy Keane.

The 27-year-old West Brom winger scored the only goal at the Ernst Happel Stadium in Vienna with a sweetly struck left-footed drive, and later revealed he had assistant manager Keane on his mind as he raced in on goalkeeper Ramazan Ozcan.
