Manuela Zinsberger – 7.5
Zinsberger started the game looking a little shaky but made some clinical saves in the second half and also keeping a clean sheet.
Katie McCabe – 7
McCabe played for just over an hour and looked solid on the pitch and made some clinical tackles, but also lost possession a fair few times.

Ilestedt had a solid night at CB and looked impossible to get past, making some clinical tackles that prevented Brighton from scoring. Completing 80% of her passes and 70 touches throughout the game.
Noelle Maritz – 7
Maritz saw a lot of the ball down the right and stayed strong and composed throughout the game and made some clinical interceptions.
Victoria Pelova – 7.5
Pelova looked dangerous and made a lot of interceptions in the midfield, winning the ball back and pushing the ball forward to start an attack.
Kyra Cooney-Cross – 8.5
Completed 88% of her passes, constantly won the ball back and scanned for the right pass, looked to be everywhere and played well both defensively and in attack.
Caitlin Foord – 8
Dominated the left wing, scored an outstanding goal and got back and helped defensively when needed. Another great performance.
Beth Mead – 7.5
Great to see her back, missed a few chances but also created a lot of chances. Made some great crosses and some key passes but lost possession a few times. Dealt with players man marking her. Not bad for her first start in a long, long time.
Alessia Russo – 7
Picked up the only yellow card and missed a few big chances. Linked up play well and didn’t really play her best till she was alone up top.
Stina Blackstenius – 8
Scored a great goal at the start of the match to put us in front but also looked to be finding it hard to play in a front 2 and had a few good shots blocked.

Also came on for 26 minutes and scored the third goal late on. Making 87% accurate passes and looked electric from the minute she came on.
Lia Walti – 7
Wasn’t on for long but didn’t look that confident. She lost the ball a few times but made some clinical tackles also and looked good in the air.
