The Macedonian women’s national team will play against well known opponents Latvia and Kosovo, within the group 6 of the League C. So far, Macedonia played five matches against Latvia (4 wins and 1 loss) and ten matches against Kosovo (1 win, 2 draws and 7 losses).
The first match from this group will be played in February 2025. The first-placed team will be promoted to League B and the runner-up from the group has a chance to play in promotion play-offs, depending on the results achieved.
The national team coach Aleksandar Andov gave his opinion of the group opponents, right after the draw:
– These are opponents who are well known to us and with whom we were in a group in the past two qualifying cycles.
– I think now is the right time to take a step forward and succeed in winning the much desired first place in the group. I believe that we can, we know how and we have the quality for that.
