Giovanni Trapattoni says his Irish players must stay positive despite their 3-1 defeat to Croatia on Sunday.

Ireland were easily beaten by Slaven Bilic's men in Poznan but with Spain and Italy still to come, Trapattoni has urged his side to continue believing that they can still cause an upset. "We have to believe. We met a strong team, technical - we knew that before," the Italian said. "But every game in this Euro can be a surprise. We have to believe this."
