Jess Fishlock returns to the Wales squad for their opening women’s 2019 World Cup qualifying trip to Kazakhstan on September 17. The Seattle Reign midfielder, who won her record 100th cap in April, sat out the two friendly games against Netherlands last July due to injury.

Wales captain Jessica Fishlock became the first player, male or female, from the country to reach 100 appearances, and she marked the occasion by scoring in a 3-1 victory over Northern Ireland in a friendly on Wednesday. Fishlock scored in the 39th minute with a stunning volley at the Centre for Sporting Excellence at Ystrad Mynach in the first of two friendlies against Northern Ireland.

Jess Fishlock has revealed the debt she owes Louis van Gaal as she prepares to become the first Welsh footballer to win 100 caps. The Wales women’s midfielder will reach the milestone on Wednesday night in an otherwise low key friendly at home to Northern Ireland at Ystrad Mynach.

Jess Fishlock is poised to make history after being included in the Wales squad for two friendlies against Northern Ireland in April. The Cardiff-born player will be the first Wales women international to win a 100th cap if named in the starting line-up for the games.
