Strikers Robbie Keane, Simon Cox, Shane Long and Jonathan Walters all get on the scoresheet as the Republic of Ireland cruise past a Tuscan XI.

The Republic of Ireland have continued their Euro 2012 preparation with a convincing win over a Tuscan XI in a charity match.

Captain Robbie Keane notched a first-half double either side of a Simon Cox strike, before substitutes Shane Long and Jonathan Walters completed the rout after the break.

Wolverhampton Wanderers defender Kevin Foley played 45 minutes in the match, despite being told that he had not made Giovanni Trapattoni's final 23-man squad for the upcoming championships.

The game had been organised in memory of the late Livorno midfielder Piermario Morosini.
