The Ireland Women’s National Team make their first trip to Turkey for their 2025 UEFA Nations League.
A 1-0 win over Turkey in February kick started the campaign for Ireland who now face the same opponent before hosting Slovenia next Tuesday (June 3rd) in Páirc Uí Chaoimh.
Ireland are 32 places ahead of Turkey (58) in the FIFA Women’s World Rankings. The Girls in Green need to collect the three points on offer in order to keep the pressure on Group B2 leaders Slovenia to finish in top spot and seal promotion to League A.
