James McClean, Stephen Ward in contention for Republic of Ireland

Republic of Ireland manager Martin O'Neill has revealed that both James McClean and Stephen Ward are available for Sunday's Euro 2016 qualifier with Poland.

The two left-sided players have missed training sessions earlier this week, but after the pair returned on Friday, O'Neill has declared them available for selection for the crucial fixture at the Aviva Stadium.

O'Neill told reporters: "Stephen Ward, who missed a few days, trained today and James McClean has trained so we're fine. They didn't complain at the end - they're not too bad."

Republic of Ireland currently sit in fourth spot in the group, three points behind leaders Poland.
