Shay Given is keeping his fingers tightly crossed ahead of Thursday's Euro2012 play-off draw.
The Aston Villa goalkeeper helped Republic of Ireland secure a second-place finish in Group B to move into the final stage of qualification for the European Championships to be held in Poland and Ukraine and he hopes they can navigate a lesser opponent so they can compete in the finals proper come next summer.
"Somebody easy," was Given's response when asked who he wants in the next round.
"We will just take it on the chin. Whoever we play will know they are in for a very tough game when they come here, and we will give them a tough game at their home place as well.
"Please God, we can get across the line this time and get through the play-offs."
