Ireland's Roy Keane, Martin O'Neill Escape Unhurt in Car Crash
Ireland football manager Martin O'Neill and assistant manager Keane were among five people in a vehicle during a minor collision in Dublin.
The Republic of Ireland football management team, including Martin O'Neill and Roy Keane, were examined by doctors on Tuesday after their vehicle was involved in a crash in Dublin.
O'Neill, the Republic's manager, and assistant manager Keane were among five people in a vehicle when another went into the back of it on the M50 motorway on the outskirts of Dublin on Tuesday evening.
The crash was confirmed in a tweet posted on the official Football Association of Ireland (FAI) Twitter account.
"The ROI mgmt team were involved in collision on M50 earlier. Vehicle was rear ended in traffic. Have rtn'd to hotel & been seen by team doc," it read.
A FAI spokesperson told the Irish Independent newspaper it was a minor collision and no-one was hurt.
"Both Roy and Martin have been looked at by the doctor in the team hotel and they are both fine," the spokesperson said.
"We will need to keep an eye on them to see if any symptoms appear within the next 48-hours -- like you normally would with these things.
"But we are very confident that everything is ok. They are a bit stiff and a bit shaken but all is ok."
On Saturday, the Republic of Ireland face Scotland at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin in a key Group D qualifier for the 2016 European championships.
It followed a dull scoreless draw in a friendly against England on Sunday, which marked the first time England had played in Dublin since rioting hooligans caused a friendly in 1995 to be abandoned after only 27 minutes.
