Ireland's Trapattoni taken to hospital
Republic of Ireland manager Giovanni Trapattoni has been taken to hospital after falling ill in Dublin.
The 71-year-old Italian has been complaining of feeling unwell since arriving in Ireland last Sunday and he believes that his sickness was caused by eating some bad shellfish.
“He is suffering from nausea which he believes may have been caused by shellfish he ate before he left Italy," read an FAI statement.
"He has been looked after by the FAI team doctor Dr Alan Byrne who as a precautionary measure brought him to the Mater Hospital this morning at 3am after further vomiting.
“He is in a stable condition and undergoing some tests this morning."
Assistant manager Marco Tardelli will take charge of the squad for training on Tuesday.
Ireland face Argentina in an international friendly match at the new Aviva Stadium in Dublin on Wednesday.
