Emslie strike major milestone as Scotland take baby step towards Brazil World Cup

Scotland winger Claire Emslie marked a significant milestone by scoring in Scotland's Women's World Cup play-off semi-final against the Czech Republic. The goal was Emslie's first since giving birth to her son, Jamie, 10 months ago. The strike helped Scotland advance toward the final stage of qualification as they aim to reach their first World Cup since 2019.

Scotland now face a crucial play-off final against Sweden to secure qualification for next summer's tournament in Brazil. Alison McConnell highlights the progressive support from the national team camp that enabled Emslie to travel with her child, while also discussing wider challenges in women's football, including low wages and broadcast limitations.
