We suffered another frustrating defeat in the Women’s Super League on Wednesday night as we were beaten 3-0 by Chelsea.
Noelle Maritz made her first start since returning from injury, while Lydia Williams replaced Manuela Zinsberger in goal. Caitlin Foord, who scored against Manchester City on Sunday, unfortunately missed out through a knee injury.
Chelsea started strong at Kingsmeadow, pressing from the front and pinning us deep into our own half, but we stood our ground and went on to wrestle back control.
First, Vivianne Miedema breezed past two defenders and saw her poked effort pushed away by Ann Katrin Berger, before Katie McCabe’s strike from distance was claimed.
