Doyle needed rest, insists Coppell
Doyle, who has 18 hit goals for the Royals this season, missed the goalless draw after playing in the 1-1 draw with Italy in midweek.[LNB]"Kevin plays that lone role up front for Ireland and he does it as well as anyone - but it takes its toll," said Coppell.[LNB]"The manager only gave him 65 minutes in midweek but I'm sure in that time he put in as much effort as most do in 90.[LNB]"The Italy game was a massive one emotionally for the Irish boys, they got back at 3am so that's why he was out of our squad."[LNB][LNB]
