Wales manager Rhian Wilkinson says guiding them to a first major women's tournament is one of the "most special things" she's ever been a part of.

A 2-1 victory over the Republic of Ireland in Dublin means Cymru will be at next summer's Euros.

Rhian Wilkinson said: "This is one of the greatest things I've ever been a part of and look at this team - it's a sisterhood.

"They're so close and they've been through a heck of a ride.

"They'll never forget this, those players and watching them celebrate it is right up there with some of the most special things I've ever been a part of."
