Trapattoni dejected

               

  With the Republic having led from first-half injury time until the final seconds of a tense encounter, players and fans alike left as dejected as if it had been a defeat, and Trapattoni admitted his emotions were similar.However, successive draws have left them level on points with Austria and Sweden, with the Swedes having played a game fewer.He said: "Also me - but you think how disappointed the players are.But asked if he would still be in post in June - former Reading boss Brian McDermott has been linked with his job in recent days - the veteran Italian was defiant.We must give them morale and belief and support. We must be positive. We have three or four young players and some players who were playing only their second or third game.Ireland looked to have eased themselves above the Swedes and the Austrians courtesy of a concerted fightback which saw them come from behind to lead with a minute of stoppage time remaining.We must believe. I said yesterday we believe in this new revolution. We have to allow these young players to grow in confidence - why not?The impressive Martin Harnik had given Austria an 11th-minute lead with a cool finish after Zlatko Junuzovic had caught defender Ciaran Clark in possession with the Republic struggling to impose themselves.Trapattoni had hoped to silence his increasingly vociferous critics by claiming a minimum for four points, a return which would have taken them into second place in Group C.
