Yeah, that goal was everything that Man City fans had envisaged and prayed for when Miedema was signed for City.
Being able to play the two of them together.
And usually you would think the roles would be reversed, that Miedema would have been the one dropping in and playing the little dink ball.
But Bunny Shaw, just perfect little ball over the top and Miedema so assured in her finish.
And it was a special goal and it was going to take something special because...
I know we talk about it all the time, but talk about facing shots.
Man City had 32, 13 of them were on target.
That shows how good they were, how exciting they are in attack, that they actually do create these really big, big chances.
So Courtney Brosnan pulled off 13 saves.
You're looking at the stats on your phone, you know, the way they give player ratings and you've lost 2-0 away from home.
Yeah, you're on an 8.6, like...
it makes no sense but yeah she was incredible again 11 saves like you speak about a player making a difference so a player like Denise going into Liverpool and making a difference Courtney is that player for Everton and has been over the last number of years like the way that Everton fans speak about Seamus Coleman if you flip that onto the Everton team Courtney has kept them in that league
genuinely and has given them a chance to kind of grow a little bit now they're not they're not out of trouble yet this year at all by any stretch but at times they created a couple of chances obviously they weren't clinical enough against a City team and you really have to be but they were resolute as well as well as having a really good performance from Courtney but in terms of Man City yeah the
the train rolls on hard hard to see them getting stopped um just because they're they're really well balanced like thought greenwood was really good she gets up in support she's a good defender then you've got balancing midfield um and then yeah what can you say about especially with hemp back now and if they keep hemp fit you know that the supply is going to get there for the front two
they just seem unstoppable and the breakers only seem to help them yeah he did say that he felt like their timing was a bit off but I mean I think if they really had to go and score more goals they would have and I think you're talking about breaking of momentum this time of year is a bit weird you know they've got the FA Cup and then they've got the League Cup now the League Cup is against Chelsea so
do you do what you did last year and kind of go all out remember Chelsea and City were playing three times in a row in various competitions because they have Chelsea again two weeks later in the league I think based on the run of form that they're in and the fact that they have the WSL trophy in sight I think that
they write off that League Cup semi-final and they don't give anything away against Chelsea.
Sometimes, like, you say, oh, you want to win everything, but it's been so long since City have won it and that will have hurt them.
Well, they've got Arsenal the following week, so those two weeks, they're the ones that they need to be eyeing up as, you know, it could be one hand on the trophy by Valentine's Day for them.
They have too much pace and their three centre-backs can afford to stay narrow.
