O Brien hopeful long throws can cause Portugal problems

Republic of Ireland defender Jake O'Brien is hoping his long throw-ins can pose problems for Portugal tomorrow night.

The Everton full-back has been launching the ball into the box for club and country this season, and he's expected to start for Ireland as they look to get their World Cup qualification campaign back on track.

O'Brien admits he can't throw the ball quite as far as former Ireland player Rory Delap, but he thinks he can set up chances in Lisbon.
