This session to this point has brought terrible misery for the Irish fans. The goal is extremely simple now - beat both Portugal and Sweden at home and hope for help from the Swiss. #FM26

Aaah, that is outrageous technique from Ivelj to make it three! She got the lay-up she demanded and did the rest! The ball was curling away from Brosnan and into the bottom corner! #FM26

Whelan plays target practice with the post! She heads her shot on to the woodwork, and then reacted quicker for the rebound! Can we somehow do unto them what happened in Lansdowne? #FM26

Leela Egli cannot be left unmarked anywhere in the six-yard box. That's 2-0 for the hosts. #FM26

It's a 1-0 scoreline at the break, with Sweden ahead away to Portugal in the other match. Let's try two up top, but remain compact for a little bit longer. #FM26

Own goal by Anna Patten. We were looking out of shape there, so I can't blame the CBs for that. #FM26

We're in the beautiful city of Geneva for this clash, but keeping the score down here is the name of the game. #FM26

Not all is lost because Sweden are on 3pts and we're on 2pts. But we have to target a win at home vs. them and/or Portugal to stand any chance. #FM26

That's a depressing sight to concede a fifth today. Whatever has happened between Sweden's two defeats and now, it's been significant. #FM26

It's a cakewalk for Sweden's fourth! A cross like a precision bowling ball is a tap-in for Selin. #FM26

If only we got to the break 2-1 down. That's Broddheimer coming forward from midfield to slot in the third goal. Switzerland 2-0 up against Portugal, which brings some normality to this group so far. #FM26

You don't see a header assist for a header goal in open play too often, and that's what Izzy and Emily have done! Couldn't miss from a yard out! #FM26

Again, the near post! Payne beaten too easily in the air! Selin supreme for 2-0! :( #FM26

Brosnan gets caught out with a speculative effort at her near post, and the Swedes are celebrating the opening goal! #FM26

Food poisoning after breakfast has struck Emily Murphy, so we'll have to either play Emily Whelan for the full 90 or get Griffin as a false nine. Anyway, Sweden look to have had some trouble too, so we'll just suck it up. #FM26

Jamie Finn also has an injury. I'll bring in Tyler Toland instead, allowing Cara Griffin to be my RM sub. #FM26

We're going to stick with the 5ATB that frustrated Switzerland for so long, but we have to dig deep to find a third-choice goalkeeper. Nicole Nix is out injured, so up will come Isabelle Brophy of Sheffield Utd. If only she got her game, she'd be an interesting prospect. #FM26

Albania WHALLOP the Swiss 3-0 to qualify for the Euros! Well, you can't begrudge them. Scotland and Wales make it too! #FM26

Captain Collins...it's a save! We're beaten 7-6 on penalties! No Euros this time. Albania get their opening to go one more time to book a place at Switzerland's expense! No backup game for us against Slovenia or anything. We just call it there. #FM26
