Republic of Ireland have been handed a triple boost with the news that Shay Given and Reading duo Kevin Doyle and Stephen Hunt have returned to training.

The trio were not involved on Sunday after picking up knocks in Saturday's 2-1 win over Georgia.

However, all three players took part in training on Monday and have now travelled with the rest of the squad to Montenegro.

The news is a major boost for Ireland boss Giovanni Trapattoni as he looks to make it two wins out of two in qualifying for the 2010 World Cup.
