"It was well deserved. I think for 90 minutes we were the better team. I think what we tried to do and hurt them in the spaces that we wanted to, we achieved that."
"Three games against three top nations - we've competed in all three. But to turn the result in tonight, away from home in a tricky place to play, they deserve an awful lot of credit."
"I just said to the players, as positive as performance and the three points, we've got to make sure the moment that we get on the bus, that everything that we do between now and then is at an absolute level."
Republic of Ireland manager Carla Ward expressed hope that her players receive the recognition they deserve after a 3-2 victory over Poland. The win elevates Ireland to third place in Group A2, following earlier defeats. Early goals from Emily Murphy and Katie McCabe set the tone, despite Poland's attempts to equalize. Ward praised her team's performance, emphasizing their competitiveness against strong opponents. She urged her players to maintain a high standard as they prepare for the upcoming match against Poland at home, aiming for maximum points to secure a World Cup play-off spot.
