Ireland line up final World Cup warm-up fixture, Zambia and France ticket details announced

Ireland will take on Colombia in their final World Cup warm-up match - in a behind-closed-doors game in Brisbane’s Meakin Park on July 14.

The game will not be classified as a full international, as both managers will want to make as many substitutions as possible, so caps won’t be awarded.

However, it will provide Vera Pauw with one last opportunity to put her players through their paces ahead of the opening Group B fixture against Australia on June 20 in Sydney.

Ireland will fly out to their Brisbane base on Friday July 7, a day after the friendly against France in Tallaght.

Colombia are currently ranked 26th in the world and have been drawn in Group H alongside Germany, Morocco and South Korea.

Meanwhile, tickets for the home friendlies against Zambia (June 22) and France (July 6) go on sale on Friday morning from 10am via Ticketmaster.

You can purchase tickets for the Zambia game here and for the France game here.
