Seamus Coleman ruled out of Republic of Ireland, Germany Euro 2016 qualifier

Martin O'Neill has confirmed that Seamus Coleman has been ruled out of Republic of Ireland's Euro 2016 qualifier against Germany due to an injury.

The Everton full-back has not played since September 12, but O'Neill hopes he will feature against Poland on Sunday.

Ireland will also be missing James McClean and Glenn Whelan due to suspensions, while midfielder Wes Hoolahan remains a doubt.

A win would guarantee Ireland a place in the playoffs, with a spot in the top two still in their sights.
