Australia 0 – 1 Scotland (7 April 2023)

BBC Report: “Scotland produced one of their best results under manager Pedro Martinez Losa as they defeated World Cup hosts Australia in London.

Nicola Docherty scored just her second goal for her country with a magnificent long-range drive off the post and into the top corner.

And Scotland were well worth their win with a string of further chances coming their way in a stirring performance.

Australia did hit the crossbar twice, but Scotland bravely held on.

And it will be a huge confidence booster before the Nations League and Euro 2025 qualifying campaigns, beating a side who have their eyes on winning the World Cup when it gets under way in July.”

Scotland 4 – 0 Costa Rica April 11 2023

BBC Report: “Scotland swept aside World Cup-bound Costa Rica as 17-year-old Emma Watson scored her first international goals after earning only her second cap.

Watson, handed her first start in Friday’s win over Australia, got the ball rolling after five minutes as she pounced on a Caroline Weir free-kick.

Claire Emslie helped steer in a Weir corner before the roles were reversed for the third – all before the break.

Watson completed the rout with a stunning strike.

It was a welcome hint of a brighter future on a night when Scotland were given a reminder of what might have been with a second victory in five days over a side who will be competing at this summer’s World Cup finals.

Scotland showed why they are 13 places above Costa Rica in the world rankings as the visitors head to Australia and New Zealand without a victory in seven outings.”
