'Never for a second did I doubt that I'd be back playing football, no.': Seamus Coleman

Republic of Ireland skipper Seamus Coleman always believed he would return to the top of his game after suffering an horrific double leg fracture.

On Friday night, the Everton full-back is likely to play for his country for the first time a day short of a year since his leg was shattered in a challenge with Wales defender Neil Taylor during a World Cup qualifier in Dublin.
