We ran out 4-0 winners over Everton in the Women’s Super League on Sunday - but it wasn’t all plain sailing.
The Toffees had a clear gameplan from the off as they looked to frustrate us with their deep block and defensive organisation, forcing Joe Montemurro into a number of tactical changes at the break.
We spoke to our manager after the final whistle - and this is what he said.
on a difficult start to the game…
We worked out that they were going to be defending in numbers and even their top two were dropping off - and they were playing a 442 - so they were really defending below the halfway line.
