Captain Katie McCabe says the Girls in Green revelled in the difficult weather conditions:

Sweden top the Group and are the next opponents for Vera Pauw's side next spring.


Just days after guiding St Patrick's Athletic to FAI Cup glory, Stephen O'Donnell is being tipped to take over as the new manager of Dundalk.
