The national team coach has named a squad of nineteen for the two qualifiers later this month.

Two players are uncapped: a left back who has started every league game this season and a nineteen year old forward from the under twenty side.

A long awaited return

The captain returns after eight months out with a knee injury. He played the full ninety minutes for his club at the weekend and the medical staff have cleared him.

The coach said selection was about form rather than reputation, and that two senior players left out had been told why in person.

The squad meets on Monday and trains at the national stadium for four days before flying out for the first match.
