Qualifiers
For the first four matches of the Euro
2012 qualification campaign Irish football team manager Giovanni
Trapattoni used the same starting eleven and a total of just 16 different
players. Injuries to key players forced Trap to field a somewhat unusual
looking team in the fifth match against Macedonia. The following players
have appeared for the Republic of Ireland during the 2012 Euro qualification
campaign matches and the play-off matches against Estonia.
