Stephen Kenny has called up five players into the Republic of Ireland squad for the trip to Finland - but Aaron Connolly doesn't return to the set up.

The squad travel to Helsinki on Tuesday and they receive the latest round of Covid-19 test results and ahead of the Nations League tie, Kenny has added reinforcements to the depleted set-up.
