Friday’s match will mark another significant personal milestone for Weir as she earns her 110th Scotland cap.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old has her sights firmly on next year’s World Cup in Brazil, saying: “That’s what I dream of, for sure. It’s my biggest ambition for the next 12 months, 18 months.<\/p>\n

“It’s not easy, but ask anyone in this team and that’s exactly where they want to be.”<\/p>\n

Weir’s journey began as a youngster with Elgin Star in Dunfermline before a career that has taken her to Hibernian, Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City.<\/p>\n

For the past four years she has been a key figure at Real Madrid, where she scored 63 goals and provided 40 assists in 125 appearances.<\/p>\n

At the weekend, she received a guard of honour when being substituted off in what could prove to be her final appearance for the Spanish club, with her contract due to expire.<\/p>\n

While refusing to discuss her future plans, Weir reflected warmly on her time in Madrid.<\/p>\n

“I’ve had an amazing four years,” she said. “I have very fond memories and love playing and representing that club. It’s a special place, special club.<\/p>\n

“Living in Madrid and wearing the kit was a dream of mine. I was a Real Madrid fan growing up.<\/p>\n

“When I signed, that was a special moment. Then in the last couple of years, playing in some big games and big moments, as a Scottish player I think it’s been really cool.<\/p>\n

“I’ve enjoyed every minute playing there.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
