Ireland will host Hungary at Tallaght Stadium in South Dublin on Friday, Dec. 1 at 11:30 a.m. PT before traveling to face Northern Ireland at Windsor Park in Belfast on Tuesday, Dec. 5 at 10:00 a.m. PT. Ireland (4-0-0) currently sits at the top of their group in League B, as the Girls in Green remain undefeated in group play.
Carusa made her Ireland debut in the EURO 2022 qualifiers after qualifying to play for the country through her grandparents. Since joining, Carusa helped Ireland qualify for the World Cup for the first time ever and has scored six international goals.
The local San Diego talent joined the Wave following her World Cup debut. In her first-ever NWSL campaign, Carusa appeared in eight matches (four starts), while scoring in two matches, including scoring the game-winning goal against Portland to help San Diego secure a playoff berth.
