Coventry United have signed two new players on season-long loans, including Wales forward Esther Morgan from Tottenham Hotspur.

Although Esther's last couple of seasons at Tottenham and subsequent loan to Leicester City were restricted by competition for places and then a long-term injury, she did prove she could play at the highest level when she was given chances. Esther only celebrated her twentieth birthday a couple of weeks ago so there is a lot of potential there and I can only agree that Coventry have done well.

Gemma Grainger hopes for another big crowd when Wales face Bosnia-Herzegovina in the play-offs. She feels the fans played a big role in Wales' achievements so far and with their help, Wales can go even further.

Wales will face Bosnia-Herzegovina in the first of the World Cup play-offs. If they win, they will face Switzerland. (Perhaps it's better not to think about how many goals Switzerland put past Moldova.) The match will be played at the Cardiff City stadium.

Result: Wales 0-0 Slovenia (World Cup qualifiers)

Wales managed to hold on for what seemed like a lot longer than ninety minutes in order to claim a place in the World Cup play-offs for the first time in their history.

If you missed it (or if you just want to see it again because who wouldn't?), the highlights are here and Wales Online have some amazing photos.

News 7/9/22 (C Jones, Nolan)

We all know what happened last night. If you don't know, you might be on the wrong website. But anyway, here's all the news that isn't related to it.

The Irish Examiner has named Carrie Jones as a Player to Watch in the Women's Super League 2022-23 season. She actually played in a football match yesterday evening and she was definitely worth watching in that.

Kylie Nolan has joined Cheltenham Town. She departs Cardiff City after three years and has played five or six times for Wales, depending on which part of Wikipedia you look at.

Wales v Slovenia News 6/9/22 (Harries, Ingle, James, Grainger, McAllister, R Roberts, Ward)

Wales have updated their Match Hub page on the official site and provided information for the record number of fans (it's possible I might mention this once or twice more in this blog post) attending the game. Wales kick off at 7.45pm BST and the match will be live on BBC1 Wales, BBC Radio Wales, Cymru Fyw and the BBC Sport website.

Gemma Grainger hopes the record crowd at the Cardiff City Stadium will be Wales' twelfth player against Slovenia as they play for what she's happy to describe as the biggest game of their lives.
