ANTHONY STOKES' fine form for Hibs has seen him rewarded with a recall to the Republic of Ireland squad to play France in the World Cup play-offs.
The 21-year-old capped a fine performance at Ibrox last week with a superb equaliser in Hibs' 1-1 draw with Rangers, and Giovanni Trapattoni has called the three-times capped striker into his squad for the showdown with the French.
The Irish play France on Saturday, 14 November, at Croke Park, with the return in Paris the following Wednesday.
Stokes is joined in the squad by clubmate Liam Miller and Celtic's Aiden McGeady.
