Watch: Scotland fire seven past Luxembourg in World Cup qualifier Eilidh Adams has been recalled to the Scotland squad for next month's Women's World Cup qualifying double-header with Belgium. Three-times capped Hibernian forward Adams, 21, missed out on this month's wins over Luxembourg as Melissa Andreatta's side opened their campaign with a 5-0 away win and 7-0 home victory. Rangers defender Leah Eddie, 25, who won her fourth cap in the second meeting with Luxembourg after being a late call-up to the squad, retains her place.

Meanwhile, 27-year-old Birmingham City midfielder Cornet, who also has three caps, and twice-capped Glasgow City full-back Amy Muir, 26, are named again after having to withdraw from the previous camp. Uncapped Rangers midfielder Jodi McLeary, 20, and 12-times capped Nottingham Forest midfielder Amy Rodgers, 25, are not included this time after being unused substitutes in both games against Luxembourg. The Scots host Belgium at Easter Road on 14 April and travel to Leuven four days later.

The Belgians also have six points from their opening two fixtures following 3-0 (away) and 5-0 (home) wins over Israel. Andreatta's team conclude the group campaign with home and away matches with Israel in June. The top three will progress to the play-offs, which will be staged from October through December.
