Women’s Euro 2025 Wales v Ireland – how to follow all the action on the BBC

Must read

As Wales look to take-on the Republic of Ireland in the Play-off final for UEFA Women’s Euro 2025, viewers and listeners can follow all the action on the BBC. Rhian Wilkinson’s team will embark on arguably the most important fixtures in their history as they look to secure qualification for their first major tournament.

The first leg on Friday, 29 November at the Cardiff City Stadium is live on BBC One Wales, BBC Radio Wales and BBC Radio Cymru, all from 7pm.

The second leg at the Aviva Stadium, Dublin on Tuesday, 3 December will be broadcast live on BBC One Wales and BBC Three from 7.15pm. On radio there will be live commentary on radio Wales Sport and Chwaraeon Radio Cymru from 7pm.

Reflecting on the coverage of the matches over the next few days Cymru Head Coach Rhian Wilkinson says: “As the oft used saying goes, you cannot be what you cannot see, and that’s the gap the Welsh Women’s national Team fill when they play at home and when they are given prime viewership time on our televisions. These women have punched above their weight for a decade, a team that runs on pride and passion for their country, a team that knows nothing but giving their all for their flag.

“These women will not only step out onto the field at Cardiff City Stadium to take a step closer to making history in qualifying for Euro 2025, but will also once again be the face of what might be for so many young Welsh women. Their faces, their pride, front and centre on Welsh TVs. These women are the heroines of a generation on women here in Wales, building a pathway and a normalcy for female sporting excellence in this great country of ours.”
