Live text commentary as Sweden host the Republic of Ireland before a live stream and text commentary of Northern Ireland against Portugal at Mourneview Park in the Euro 2025 qualifiers.
However, the opening five minutes of this game has been a lot more equal and Northern Ireland are certainly taking advantage of the size of Mourneview as they look to test stopper Ines Pereira.The ball is floated in by Katie McCabe, Zerica Musovic comes out to claim the ball and does so after initially dropping the ball into the path of Leanne Kiernan.
Another loss and a Sweden win would mount pressure on the European champions with the play-offs becoming a likely route for their potential qualification to next year's finals.Bosnia-Herzegovina's 2-1 victory over Malta earlier in Zenica means that they have leapfrogged Northern Ireland into second in the group with six points having played a game more.
The ball is cleared out but only to Aoife Mannion who tries to shoot but miss-hits the ball and sends the ball out for a goal kick.Aoife Mannion's last-ditch clearance is blocked by Rolfo which deflects towards goal but Courtney Brosnan is there to save the ball from what would have been an agonising way to concede.It is a big night for Brenna McPartlan, who starts for the first time for Northern Ireland alongside Joely Andrews as Tanya Oxtoby looks for more energy and pace in midfield.
Caragh Hamilton is expected to play in the back five, again with her pace in mind it would seem as Northern Ireland try to contain the dangerous Lucia Alves, who scored twice in Leiria on Friday night and was a constant threat.Sweden have come out the blocks flying in the second half.Tanya Oxtoby makes three changes to the starting XI who were defeated 4-0 in the first game of the double header against Portugal.
Caragh Hamilton replaces Demi Vance, who drops to the bench. In midfield Brenna McPartlan makes her starting debut and Joely Andrews returns to the starting XI. They replace Chloe McCarron and Nadene Caldwell.Meanwhile the away side also make three changes from Friday night with Ines Pereira starting between the posts and replacing Patricia Morais-Braga and Catarina Amado and Diana Silva replacing Joana Marchao and Jessica Silva.
