Player to watch – Marie-Antoinette Katoto

France's 25-year-old forward is one of the best in the world right now and has led by example in the Euro 2025 qualifiers.

Marie-Antoinette Katoto has scored three times in the qualifiers to make it 30 goals in 40 caps for her country and we're backing the PSG striker to shine against Ireland.

Katoto leads the way for France with three goals in the Euro 2025 qualifiers

Katoto scored the only goal of the game when these two nations clashed in April so don't be surprised to see her name up in lights once again.
