The FAI has confirmed Martin O’Neill has departed his position as manager of the Republic of Ireland. Roy Keane and the rest of the management team - Seamus McDonagh and Steve Guppy have also gone, the association said in a statement.
O'Neill took over in November 2013, and was in charge for 55 matches, winning 19, drawing 20 and losing 16, giving him a win ration of 35%. The 66-year-old guided the Irish to the 2016 European Championship, where they reached the last 16 before defeat to eventual runners-up France.
However a convincing 5-1 aggregate defeat at the hands of Denmark in the World Cup playoffs set the tone for recent struggles for O’Neill and Keane, whose side subsequently scored one goal in four games against Wales and the Danes in the Nations League.
The FAI president Donal Conway said: "On behalf of the FAI Board, I would like to thank Martin, Roy, and the management team for their work with the Republic of Ireland team over the last five years."
