The nominees
Eileen Campbell and Naika Reissner have been called up for Austria again. In the final two matches of their group, Austria will face Slovenia and Norway. Having taken only one point from the first four games, the Austrian team are under pressure, especially iwhen they meet third-placed Slovenia (3 points), to avoid relegation to League B of the UEFA Women’s Nations League. Regardless, after the summer break, both the third and fourth-placed teams will still have play-offs for World Cup qualification.

Two Union players, Amber Tysiak and Hannah Eurlings, have also been nominated for Belgium, alongside new signing, Jill Janssens. In the final phase of the group stage, the Belgian women, who currently rank second in Group 4 of League B, will twice face the bottom team Luxembourg, who remain without a single point. The group leaders, Scotland, are tied with Belgium on eight points and will face Israel in the remaining two matches, who, on six points, are also still in the race.
