Manager Quotes – Vera Pauw
"We are looking*forward to this second game*against USA as there*were a lot of positives for us to take out of the*first game in Austin.
"We will make some changes with both Aoife Mannion and Sinead Farrelly not starting this game due to injury prevention as we need to protect them because of their limited game-time at club level.
"This game is another opportunity for us to test ourselves under the pressure of playing against a quality team. It is a challenge that we will embrace as it will help our preparation for the World Cup."
