Melissa names first Scotland squad
Newly appointed Scotland Women’s National Team Head Coach, Melissa Andreatta, has named her first squad ahead of this
month’s UEFA Women’s Nations League double header against Austria and the
Netherlands.
Following her unveiling at Hampden Park last week, Andreatta has picked a squad which blends youth with experience as Scotland look to get their first points on the board in this campaign and retain their place in League A.
Captain Rachel Corsie returns following a long term injury, along with experienced left back Nicola Docherty. The defensive duo return to the fold along with Rangers duo Kirsty Howat and Brogan Hay as well as Hibernian striker Kath McGovern, who secures her first senior call up.
They replace Kirsty Hanson, Leah Eddie, Claire Emslie, Eilidh Adams and Kirsty Smith in the squad.
This year’s Nations League campaign will draw to a close with a home match against Austria on Friday 30 May at Hampden Park ahead of the final match away to the Netherlands on Tuesday 3 June.
Tickets for the Austria match at Hampden (7.35pm) are available via the Scottish FA website, along with the trip to the Netherlands (7.30pm) at the Koning Willem II Stadion in Tilburg.
Both matches will be televised live, with the Austria game on BBC ALBA and BBC Scotland broadcasting the match in Tilburg.
