FIFA Women’s World Cup Ireland V Canada Match Preview

Ireland will face Canada in their second group-stage match at the FIFA Women’s World Cup this afternoon.

Following a 1-0 defeat against Australia last week, the Girls in Green will be looking to earn a victory. Canada played their first game against Nigeria last week Friday, where they drew 0-0. They too will be hungry for a win at the World Cup.

It has been confirmed that Heather Payne and Louise Quinn are fit to start, while Lucy Quinn will be in for Marissa Sheva.

Kick-off is at 1pm and will be broadcasted on RTE.

Ireland need to at least draw in order to prevent their early departure from the group stages.
