Scotland's A Squad: Rising Stars and Seasoned Veterans Ready for Friendlies Against Morocco and Switzerland

Scotland's head coach, Melissa Andreatta, has selected Georgia Brown, a defender from the Scotland Under-23 team, for her first A squad call-up for upcoming friendlies against Morocco and Switzerland. Brown, who plays for Sporting Club Jacksonville in the USL Super League, impressed during her under-23 debut against Iceland. She joins the squad alongside Kirsty Smith and forwards Mia McAulay and Kirsty Hanson, with Brown filling the defensive gap left by retired captain Rachel Corsie. The team will face Morocco in Casablanca before hosting Switzerland at East End Park in Dunfermline.

The squad features a mix of experienced players and rising talents, including Aston Villa's Hanson, who scored a stunning goal in a recent Women's Super League match, and Rangers' McAulay, who has been in fine form in the SWPL. The team is looking to build on their recent performances, which included a narrow defeat to Austria and an impressive draw against the Netherlands. The goalkeepers for the squad are Eartha Cumings, Lee Gibson, and Sandy MacIver, while the defensive line includes Brown, Jenna Clark, Nicola Docherty, and others.

In the midfield, players like Erin Cuthbert, Lauren Davidson, and Caroline Weir bring their skills to the team, supported by forwards like Kirsty Howat and Martha Thomas. The squad is gearing up for a series of friendlies to test their mettle and continue their development under Andreatta's leadership. With a mix of seasoned veterans and promising newcomers, Scotland's A squad is ready to take on the challenges ahead and showcase their talent on the international stage.
