The Football Association of Ireland has voiced its support for Manchester United legend Roy Keane amid allegations that he was involved in an altercation at the team hotel.
Reports circulated after Gardai had been called to the team hotel in Portmarnock earlier in the day.
The statement said: "Following inaccurate media reports which refer to an incident involving a member of the public this evening at the Republic of Ireland team hotel, we wish to clarify that Roy Keane called the Gardai following the incident.
"The manager, Martin O'Neill and the FAI are fully aware of the circumstances surrounding this event, and the Assistant Manager has their full support."
A Garda spokesman confirmed officers received reports of an incident at a hotel in north Dublin. The incident occurred at 3.30pm.
