Senior women’s futsal team suffer heavy defeat against Slovakia
Slovakia overpowered Northern Ireland’s senior women’s futsal team in their third and final preliminary round qualifier for the UEFA European Women’s Futsal Championship 2022.
Keith Gibson’s team registered their first competitive victory when they defeated Lithuania 1-0 on Thursday.
But Slovakia were a different proposition as they recorded an 8-0 win to top Group A of the preliminary round of the Women’s Futsal Euro and progress to the next stage.
In their third game in the mini tournament in Lithuania this week, Northern Ireland were under the cosh for long spells and the Slovakians were ruthless in front of goal.
