David McGoldrick is looking to win his sixth cap for the Republic of Ireland when they take on Mexico in a friendly on Friday.

The Town striker has been named in the 19 man squad for the game, Martin O’Neill having cut his party down from an original 37.

The Irish take on the talented Mexicans at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, then face Uruguay in another friendly in Dublin on Sunday. 

The games are warm ups for the home World Cup qualifier against Austria on Sunday, June 11, with Ireland second in their group on goal difference.
