Irish legend O' Shea chats to WLR's Matt Keane about his career in the Green jersey

Next month's friendly with the United States will be John O'Shea's final game as a Republic of Ireland player.

The Sunderland defender says the time is right for him to retire from international football.

The Aviva friendly will be O'Shea's 118th Ireland cap, having made his debut 17-years ago under Mick McCarthy.

A captain of his country on 17 occasions, O'Shea says now is the time for others to lead the team forward.
