The game, which takes place on Tuesday 21 September, marks the first time the senior women’s team will have played at the stadium since its redevelopment.

The game in Belfast is the second of a home double-header for boss Kenny Shiels’ side with Luxembourg the opposition on Friday 17 September (venue to be confirmed).

Shiels told irishfa.com: “With the sense of occasion that was the UEFA Super Cup brought to Belfast last week still fresh in my mind, I will be particularly proud to walk the team out at the National Football Stadium at Windsor Park. It will be a memorable occasion,” he said.

Captain Marissa Callaghan commented: “I know I speak for the whole squad when I say how excited we are. Stepping over the white line at the National Football Stadium is something we have all dreamt about for years.”

Northern Ireland then take on England at Wembley Stadium on 23 October.
