Episode 2670: Amber Delivers, Giddy Up For The World Cup, Scots Karma
Ireland beat Zambia 3-2 in Tallaght last night, but there was also a game within the game, as players jostled for position on Vera Pauw’s World Cup squad.
Ireland international Karen Duggan and Emma Duffy of the42.ie tell us who they think did well, who’s on the edge, and how important squad dynamics are ahead of the squad selection next Thursday.
Amber Barrett’s two goals appear to have booked her place, we consider Vera’s poker face, and there’s also a very nervy weekend in store for Frances Murphy.
