THE REPUBLIC OF Ireland women’s national team’s international friendly against Morocco on Monday will be broadcast live on the RTÉ Player and News Channel.
Vera Pauw’s side are in Spain for a training camp, with preparations for next summer’s World Cup well underway.
They face Morocco in a behind-closed-doors game today, before meeting the side ranked 76th in the world — Ireland are 24th — in a full international friendly game at the Marbella Football Center on Monday [KO 5pm Irish time].

This will be the 10th game of the year for the Girls In Green, which included a successful World Cup qualifying campaign and culminated in an historic play-off victory over Scotland at Hampden Park last month.
Ireland have been drawn into Group B against Australia, Canada and Nigeria for next summer’s tournament Down Under. Facing Morocco will be a “good eye-opener” ahead of that Nigeria showdown, as several players noted this week; the seventh-highest ranked team in Africa having beaten Nigeria on penalties in July’s Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (Wafcon) semi-finals.
