Midfielder could still feature in World Cup opener
Republic of Ireland manager Vera Pauw says Denise O'Sullivan could still feature in next week's World Cup opener against Australia.
The midfielder suffered a shin injury in yesterday's behind-closed-doors friendly with Colombia.
The game was abandoned after 20 minutes due to excessively rough play, according to the FAI.
A scan has revealed O'Sullivan didn't sustain any bone fracture.
Pauw says they're hopeful of a quick recovery ahead of Thursday's match.
