Rapids’ striker Kevin Doyle was removed from the Republic of Ireland’s international friendly against Switzerland on Friday with an apparent injury.

“Doyle is down in a heap after clutching his knee following that challenge on Schar. He signifies that he needs to come off. And this is a stretcher job. Oh dear,” wrote Nick Royle of Eurosport.

The initial reports from the stadium were not optimistic.
