Wales reach first major women's tournament; Rhian Wilkinson: 'A generation that's going to change everything'
Wales Women’s head coach Rhian Wilkinson said her side have provided “a generation of football that’s going to change everything” after qualifying for their first major tournament. Wales booked their place at the 2025 European Championship after a 2-1 victory over the Republic of Ireland secured a 3-2 aggregate play-off win. Goals from Hannah Cain and Carrie Jones saw Wales to victory at the Aviva Stadium on Tuesday despite a late header from Anna Patten halving the deficit for the hosts, as they confirmed their place at next summer’s tournament in Switzerland.
