The Northern Ireland senior women’s team will host the Republic of Ireland in the final game of the inaugural UEFA Women’s Nations League campaign at the National Football Stadium at Windsor Park on Tuesday, December 5th.

Northern Ireland’s senior women’s team last played at the venue in April 2022 when they took on England in a FIFA Women’s World Cup qualifier, a game that attracted an attendance of 15,348.

“The National Football Stadium at Windsor Park is the home of football in Northern Ireland, it is a place we are proud of and one that is befitting of this fixture,” said Angela Platt, Director of Women’s Football at the Irish FA.

“We are looking forward to welcoming our neighbours from the Republic of Ireland for what we hope will be a fantastic contest.”

“It will also be an opportunity to demonstrate to everyone how far the women’s game has come here and how it continues to grow across the island of Ireland.”

“To be back at the National Stadium at Windsor Park for a major senior women’s international is testament to the growth of the women’s game in Northern Ireland,” added Northern Ireland Manager Tanya Oxtoby.

“For me, it will be particularly special to manage the team there for the first time. Not only do I feel that the players will benefit from this but our brilliant fans will make it an atmosphere to help the team perform to its peak.”

The Republic of Ireland have won all four of their games and have won the group, securing promotion to the top flight of the game in Europe, and a guaranteed play off route at worst for the Euro 2025 Championships.

Second seeds Northern Ireland have won one, drawn one and lost two games so far.

In September the sides met in front of a record crowd of 35,944 at the Aviva Stadium.
