Courtney Brosnan feels Ireland deserved more from their opening-day defeat away to France in Metz.
Gavin Cooney reports from Stade Saint-Symphorien, Metz IRELAND GOALKEEPER COURTNEY Brosnan says Ireland deserved more than a narrow defeat to France in the opening game of their Euro 2025 qualifying campaign.
Ireland are in a group of death along with Sweden and England: the latter come to Dublin next Tuesday. “Megan coming on with the long throws causes a bit of chaos, Leanne had a good chance at the end, I thought it might have been sneaking in the back post but my angle was bad. We had them under a bit more pressure at the end and we were going for it, so I think we scored a goal.”
“That’s what we have talked about since the World Cup. We don’t want that to be our story and that’s it, we want to keep growing and keep pushing for more as we have the quality of players to do that. We are continuing to move in the right direction but we need to get results, and that’s what we are trying to do.”
“They had a great crowd here I tried not pay too much attention and focus on the gameplan. Do what we can to win the game.”
