IRELAND MIDFIELDER MEGAN Connolly has headed home from hospital as she continues to recover from the injuries sustained in last Thursday’s World Cup qualifier win over Finland.
Connolly, who played in a back three last Thursday night in a change from her regular midfield spot, sustained the injury early in the game but played on for the full game and was a key figure in the win at Tallaght Stadium.
