Coleman to leave hospital
Seamus Coleman is expected to leave hospital on Wednesday following surgery on a double-leg fracture.
Coleman was on the receiving end of a horror tackle from Neil Taylor during the Republic of Ireland's 0-0 draw with Wales on Friday night and underwent surgery to pin his broken tibia and fibula on Saturday morning.
The Republic of Ireland skipper is facing a prolonged spell on the sidelines as he recovers from the injury, but manager Martin O'Neill has reported him to be in much better spirits after visiting him in hospital ahead of Tuesday's friendly against Iceland.
"Seamus is doing much better today. I went to see him again. He's in better spirits," O'Neill reported on Tuesday night.
"It's as much to do with he's still got the family around – his brother, his wife, his mother and the youngster all keeping him pretty busy. I think he's doing much better now. It's not something you're going to get over in 24 hours, 36 hours. He's in much better spirits.
"He's getting out tomorrow, I think. It's encouraging to see. He's very positive, which I knew he would be. It's a tough injury. Could he get over it? If anybody can quickly, then Seamus can do that."
