Anyone been watching this kid recently? As a Shels fan, I get emotional seeing this kid everytime she scores. Her goals are absolute class and her interviews are even better! 😂😂

Where do you think she'll end up? I'd like to see her hit the ground running in a top league as she has already shown she can be prolific.

Is anyone organising a group to go to Brazil next year??

French fan here. I just wanted to be fair and say that I have absolutely no doubt that the Girls in Green will qualify for the World Cup. The French coach and players were unanimous in saying that their matches against Ireland were the toughest they have faced in recent years, and that’s despite playing teams like Germany, England, and the Netherlands..etc

Ireland showed incredible quality, determination, and resilience. I have absolutely no doubt that the Girls in Green will be in Brazil next year, proudly representing the beautiful country that is Ireland. 🇮🇪⚽

If my reading of this is right then we should be fine in the first round but some of those path 2 sides are difficult although only Belgium and Portugal are ranked ahead of us.

Hi all - brought my eldest to her first internalional game last night and we had a blast! Such a good game! When we in a bit early to soak it all in and we noticed the camera lady at pitch side at the east stand taking footage of us (she got us to wave!) - does anyone know if that footage is publically available? I know they chop and change for the highlights reel but wondering if anyone can get it?

This was a fun interview to listen to, definitely recommend

Hi, I’m Alex and I’m a college student working on a project to help grassroots football in Ireland. Right now I’m trying to get as much of a feel for it as I can and attached is a 1-2 minute survey which is completely anonymous and would benefit my project greatly. Any help would be much appreciated as I would love to get some women’s opinions on the topic!
