Quiz: Can You Name The Ireland Starting XI From Roy Keane's Debut?

On this day 26 years ago, a young, fresh-faced, clean-shaven Roy Keane made his Ireland debut.

At just 20 years old, the then Nottingham Forest star was a hot prospect but little were people to know the glittered and controversial international career which followed.

But can you remember who he played alongside in the starting team against Chile on that May night in Lansdowne Road? The game, which we're sure lives long in the memory, finished in a 1-1 draw.

Keane wrote about the game, the biggest in his young life, in his autobiography.

I was pleased to be selected but it wasn’t a particularly memorable occasion.

Always over-hyping everything that fella.

Don't worry if your first guess is wrong, keep trying. You'll know all of the players. If you consider yourself an Irish fans in the 90's, you should be getting at least 10/11 in this.
