Donegal’s Amber Barrett and Tyler Toland have been named in the Ireland squad for the upcoming European Championship qualifiers with England and France.
Ireland face England at Carrow Road in Norwich on Friday week before the French visit Pairc Ui Chaoimh in Cork the following Tuesday.
Eileen Gleeson will be without captain Katie McCabe for the England game through suspension.
Defender Niamh Fahey, midfielder Denise O’Sullivan and attacker Marissa Sheva all return to the squad, while injuries rule out Chloe Mustaki, Tara O’Hanlon, Jamie Finn, Heather Payne and Kyra Carusa.
It will be the first time in 12 years that the WNT will have played a home fixture outside Dublin and it will be their seventh game overall in Cork.
