Denise O’Sullivan and Emily Murphy are named in the Republic of Ireland squad despite being suspended for the penultimate World Cup group match against the Netherlands at Páirc Uí Chaoimh on Friday, June 5th.Both players picked up a second yellow card in the defeat of Poland last month, a result that gave Carla Ward’s side a chance of qualifying directly for Brazil 2027.“Denise is such a huge influence on the squad and Murph is a big loss too,” said Ward. “To have them around is absolutely vital. Bringing an extra couple of players in means we are have full bill health for the first game.”It remains to be seen who Ward will select instead of O’Sullivan and Murphy, but Lucy Quinn replaced the injured Liverpool midfielder away to the Netherlands in March. Crystal Palace forward Abbie Larkin is the obvious alternative to Murphy.Ireland captain Katie McCabe and Marissa Sheva both carry yellow cards into the Netherlands game. Jessie Stapleton and Hayley Nolan have been recalled to a 24-player squad that can reach the World Cup by topping Group A2. To do so, Ireland need at least four points from the game against the Netherlands in Cork and the fixture in Grenoble against France on June 9th, while also hoping that Poland manage take points from their remaining two games.If Ireland finish second or third in the group, they will be rerouted to a playoff semi-final in October.
