Our UEFA Women’s Champions League campaign began with a tough 5-2 loss away to Bayern Munich.
We opened the scoring through Mariona Caldentey but the hosts turned everything around in the second half, courtesy of a Pernille Harder hat-trick.
What happened?
Our Gunners were competitive from the outset with some early balls in behind for Stina Blackstenius to speed onto. The hesitancy and indecision that characterised some of our play against Everton was left behind in N5, as we pressed the hosts with intent.
Both goalkeepers were tested with relatively tame shots from distance from Frida Maanum and Georgia Stanway respectively.
