The Women's team are continuing their fabulous start to the season.
Tonight was second ever game in Champions League proper, away to Atletico Madrid, Despite having a player sent off in the first half we won the game 1-0.
Whilst playing some good attacking football this season they have been excellent defensively, only 4 goals conceded in 11games played in total. Ultimately it's your defence that wins the trophies.
Seemingly, Tullis-Joyce (goalkeeper) was excellent again tonight. Biggest compliment you can give her, is that Mary Earps has not really been missed.
Let's hope they can keep this level of performance going.
Go Girl's.

Ridiculous red card after VAR. Tackling leg on the ground studs down, trailing leg with foot pulled back. The knee caught the attacker. Really hardly a yellow never mind a red. Clearly influenced by the injury more than the tackle. Would never have been given in the men's game, unless the tackler was called Casemiro.
Tullis-Joyce is an excellent keeper. In attack they do tend to squander a few very good chances but the team has certainly not gone backwards despite the club getting a lot of criticism for its trades, and letting (assuming they had a choice) top players leave.
