As confirmed by Martin O'Neill on Tuesday, O'Shea will miss this evening's friendly against Oman. However, as per the information we have, the Waterford native is set to be in Dublin to bid farewell to Robbie Keane in his final game for Ireland.
O'Shea, the Sunderland player, is expected to stick around the international scene a while longer.
