Kaitlyn Torpey

Australia claimed a 2-0 win against hosts Kenya in the FIFA Series final on Wednesday, with Torpey playing the full 90 minutes in Nairobi.

Aoife Mannion and Emily Murphy

Forward Murphy and defender Mannion both played the full game as the Republic of Ireland recorded a fine 3-2 FIFA Women's World Cup qualifying win over Poland, with Murphy scoring her side's opener and providing an assist for their winner.

Murphy put Carla Ward's charges in front at the Gdansk Stadium on Tuesday, before supplying Marissa Sheva who made it 3-1 just before the hour.

Though Poland rallied and pulled another goal back, Ward's side held on to pick up their first victory in Group A2 after back-to-back defeats at the start of their campaign.

Murphy and Mannion will now hope to feature against the same opposition at Dublin's Aviva Stadium on Saturday, 18th April (kick-off 3pm BST).

Freya Gregory

A staple of the Scotland squad, Gregory is back in Melissa Andreatta's squad for their FIFA Women's World Cup qualifiers against Belgium and played the full 90 minutes of their 1-1 draw at Hibernian's Easter Road on Tuesday, with Kathleen McGovern's last-gasp leveller preserving their unbeaten start.

They will now face the same opponents at The King Power at Den Dreef Stadium in Leuven on Saturday, 18th April (kick-off 7:30pm BST).

Former Aston Villa forward Gregory will be hoping to win her 12th senior cap for her country, having featured in the emphatic 5-0 and 7-0 wins over Luxembourg that started Andretta's side's qualifying campaign in February.

Oona Sevenius and Anna Tamminen

The Magpies duo were both named in the Finland squad for this month's FIFA Women's World Cup qualifying double-header.

Helmarit kicked off the international window with an impressive 4-2 win over Slovakia at the Helsinki Football Stadium on Tuesday, with Sevenius appearing as a second half substitute.

They will now face Latvia at the Daugava Stadium in Riga on Saturday (kick-off 6pm BST). Finland recorded a 3-1 win in their reverse fixture against Latvia, with Sevenius netting her eighth goal at international level in the process.

Lois Joel

Joel was named in the Wales squad for their two Women's World Cup qualifying fixtures against Albania, but didn't feature as Rhian Wilkinson's side won 4-0 in the first encounter at Racecourse Ground in Wrexham on Tuesday.

They will now travel to the Elbasan Arena on Saturday to face the same opponents (kick-off 5pm BST).

A representative of England at youth level, Joel made her senior international debut for Cymru in February 2024.

Shania Hayles

Forward Hayles has been included in the Jamaica squad ahead of their 2026 CONCACAF W Championship qualifiers against Antigua & Arbuda and Guyana.

The Reggae Girlz recorded a 4-0 win against Antigua & Barbuda at the country's National Stadium on Friday, with Hayles playing the full game in Kingston.

Jamaica can seal top spot in Group B, securing their place at this year's CONCACAF W Championship in the process, by avoiding defeat against Guyana on Saturday 18 April, which will take place at the same venue [kick-off 7pm local time].

Hayles has netted two goals in Jamaica's 2027 World Cup qualifying campaign to date, scoring in an 18-0 thrashing of Dominica before bagging the winner in a 3-2 triumph over Nicaragua.

Charlotte Wardlaw and Jasmine McQuade

The Magpies pair were named in the Scotland Women Under-23s squad for a double-header of matches in Spain this month.

Scotland's youngsters were edged out in a 1-0 defeat against France on Sunday in Murcia, with Wardlaw playing the full game at the Estadio Nueva Condomina.

Scotland face either USA or Denmark on Thursday 16 April at the same venue. Kick-off will take place at either 12pm or 6pm (BST).
