I think it's tough in the middle of your domestic season to have a match this big in the start of other teams' preseason year.
So I think for Arsenal in the middle of the season, having a tough game coming up on the weekend domestically, trying to get back up to the top of the table,
You know, having all the depth they have, but they have to, you know, stay fit and healthy.
And then having a game like this, extremely important.
This is now, you know, one of the, it's a milestone for the women's club.
They've, you know, won a lot in recent years.
And so I'm excited to see that, you know, they continue down this path.
Obviously, they conceded late in the match, which I'm sure was really difficult for them.
But to have that mentality to come back and to stay in it to the very end and be able to finish and win the first ever trophy.
Yeah, that was pretty incredible from a group who's been successful quite often in recent years.
Yeah, and who has dealt with the pressure too.
I mean, their biggest star is obviously participating in a summer tournament with the Euros.
So they've been pretty busy up to this point and still expected to perform.
But with this title, I mean, the world title, right?
In a sense, Ali, are they really the world's best at this moment for you?
