Wales Women Welcome Rachel Rowe Back for Nations League

Wales women's football team is gearing up for their UEFA Nations League matches against Denmark and Sweden, with the return of Southampton midfielder Rachel Rowe after a muscle injury. Head coach Rhian Wilkinson has announced a 26-player squad, which also includes recalls for Bristol City's Tianna Teisar and Blackburn's Poppy Soper. Following a narrow 1-0 loss to Italy and a commendable 1-1 draw with Sweden, Wales aims to build on their performance as they prepare for Euro 2025, their first major tournament. Wilkinson emphasized the need for the team to push their own standards and not settle for close calls in matches. The upcoming fixtures are seen as crucial for refining strategies ahead of their Euro debut in Switzerland this July. The squad will also face Denmark again in May and host Italy in June as part of their preparations.
