Vera Pauw names side for Ireland WNT's crucial World Cup play-off with Scotland

Ireland manager Vera Pauw has named her team to face Scotland in tonight's crucial World Cup play-off.

Pauw has had to ring the changes with the likes of Ruesha Littlejohn, Jess Ziu and Megan Connolly all missing out. Katie McCabe captains the side on one of the biggest nights in the history of Irish football, while Courtney Brosnan retains her position in goals.

Denise O'Sullivan also starts as expected.
