Midfielder Connie Scofield has been ruled out of the Northern Ireland squad for the forthcoming Uefa Women's Nations League games against Poland and Bosnia-Herzegovina.

It was revealed on Wednesday that Scofield has picked up a hamstring injury, prompting her withdrawal from manager Tanya Oxtoby's group for the two matches.

The 25-year-old, who has just completed a loan spell at Sheffield United Women from London City Lionesses, will be replaced in the squad by Nottingham Forest Women defender Natalie Johnson.

Northern Ireland will play unbeaten Group B1 leaders Poland on Friday 30 May at Seaview, then face Bosnia-Herzegovina in their final game in Zenica on Tuesday 3 June.

Oxtoby's side sit second in the group going into the final two rounds of fixtures, three points behind leaders Poland.
