Trapattoni to stick

         

They head into the game brimming with confidence after Friday's 0-0 draw in Sweden, which kept alive their hopes of claiming second spot in Group C. However, that point will only prove worthwhile if they add three more to it this evening, and while that may require a different approach, Trapattoni will not throw caution to the wind.Trapattoni has never made any apologies for his concentration on substance rather than style, although he went into the game in Stockholm knowing defeat could have signalled the end of his tenure.He said: I saw 20 games before I came to Ireland - I don't remember this 'show'. To remember the show, I must go back to Roy Keane and that great team. I played against this strong Ireland team. But for 24 years, we had been missing tournaments. I saw many games on DVD and I can't remember seeing this.Provided that left-back Marc Wilson shakes off a groin injury, the Italian's starting XI will see only one further change with Glenn Whelan returning in place of Paul Green.The Italian continued: "Our team has produced this and we can win. Against France and against the teams in the first qualifying campaign, against Georgia, Montenegro and also Bulgaria, we played great football. Don't forget, we have played well in the past.
