Ireland Women’s National Team fans are encouraged to attend the UEFA Nations League game against Türkiye to celebrate three legendary players – Niamh Fahey, Diane Caldwell and Julie-Ann Russell.

The recently retired trio will be special guests at Tallaght Stadium on Friday, February 21 and will be presented to the crowd at half-time to honour their outstanding international careers.

Collectively, the three players amassed 283 appearances over the last two decades. Fahey (115) is the fifth most-capped WNT player, while Caldwell (102) is seventh on the list of Centurions and Russell clocked up 66 games.

Ireland WNT Head Coach Carla Ward said: “It is important that we pay tribute to these three legends in Niamh Fahey, Diane Caldwell and Julie-Ann Russell at the Türkiye game to recognise what they did for Ireland as players.
