Carla Ward, manager of the Republic of Ireland women's national team, remains committed to her role as they prepare for crucial World Cup qualifying matches against Kazakhstan. Despite rumors linking her to a return to the Women's Super League, Ward emphasizes her dedication to the team and their goal of reaching the World Cup in Brazil next summer.
The team faces Kazakhstan in a two-legged playoff, with the first match scheduled for October 9. Ward will need to adapt her lineup due to suspensions and injuries to key players, but she expresses confidence in her squad's ability to perform at a high level.
