12.10.2022 - 11:33 breakingnews.ie

The Republic of Ireland have been applauded for their "historic" win over Scotland on Tuesday night which saw them qualify for their first major tournament.

A 72nd minute goal from Amber Barrett claimed the win for Vera Pauw and her players, earning them a spot in next year's World Cup which will be co-hosted by New Zealand and Australia.

Going into the game, Ireland knew they needed a win to be in with a chance of qualifying, and a loss for Iceland in one of the two other playoff finals left the door wide open for the girls in green.

President Michael D Higgins congratulated the team following the win, with the official President of Ireland account tweeting: "Congratulations to the [FAI] Women's National Team on their historic achievement in qualifying for the [Fifa] World Cup.
