‘This really was a defining game for us’

Joe Montemurro’s half-time team talk inspired us to our seventh consecutive Women’s Super League win of the season on Sunday as we beat Birmingham City 3-1.

We spoke to Montemurro after the final whistle - and this is what he said:

on whether that was our toughest game of the season so far...
Of course. They’re a difficult team to play.
