John O'Shea, Shane Long take part in Republic of Ireland training

Shane Long and John O'Shea are likely to be in contention to feature for Republic of Ireland against Bosnia-Herzegovina, having taken part in Sunday's training session.

The Republic of Ireland have been handed a double fitness boost ahead of Monday night's showdown with Bosnia-Herzegovina after both John O'Shea and Shane Long took part in training.

Both players were seen as major doubts for Monday night's meeting at the Aviva Stadium, having struggled to shake off niggling injury problems.

However, Long and O'Shea were part of Ireland's group training session on Sunday morning, suggesting that they could now be in contention to play a part in the crucial Euro 2016 qualification playoff second leg tie.

Ireland were also without the experienced heads of Shay Given and Jonathan Walters in Zenica for Friday's well-earned 1-1 draw, but Stoke City forward Walters is also expected to be fit.
