THE IRELAND WOMEN’S U19s have qualified for the Uefa European Championships for the first time since 2014.

This is the second time that head coach Dave Connell has led a women’s U19 squad to a Euros.

Meanwhile in the League of Ireland, tonight’s SSE Airtricity Men’s Premier Division fixture between Sligo Rovers and Galway United has been postponed. A statement released today reads that the game has been called off due to “health and safety concerns owing to the risk of travelling, flying debris and power outages in the Sligo area amid an Orange Weather Warning issued by Met Eireann.”The42 is on Instagram!
