Ireland Squad Named for Tallaght Return in Nations League

The Republic of Ireland Ireland Women’s National Team will continue their UEFA Nations League campaign with two games back-to-back against Albania, the first of them back at Tallaght Stadium on the evening of Friday, 27th October.

The kick off time is at 5:45 PM which is probably better suited for the younger fans that are such an important part of the following.

A limited number of tickets are available for the match which is expected to be a sell out.

The team has started the Nations League campaign with two impressive wins against Northern Ireland in the Aviva Stadium and away against Hungary.

A limited number of tickets are available for the match which is expected to be a sell out. A record crowd of 35,944 fans turned up to cheer them on at the Aviva Stadium last month.

Interim Head Coach Eileen Gleeson has selected a 26-player squad for the this game and away in Shkoder on Tuesday, October 31.

There is a call-up for in-form midfielder Erin McLaughlin, who last week helped Peamount United win the SSE Airtricity Women’s Premier Division title with two games still to play.

Injuries rule out Niamh Fahey, Aoife Mannion, Claire Walsh, Tara O’Hanlon, Roma McLaughlin, Jess Ziu and Leanne Kiernan.
