EA SPORTS ARE adding women’s teams to their hugely-popular computer football computer game for the first time in its 22-year history.

FIFA 16 will include 12 national sides — Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, England, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Spain, Sweden, and the US — but unfortunately Ireland do not feature.

The news comes a week before the 2015 Women’s World Cup kicks off in Canada.
