Wrightyand Steph agree Alessia Russo wasn't played in the right role, with stats showing she had only four touches of the ball at the 40-minute mark. Katie Reid is another player they agree on, praising her for her pace, decision-making and ability to sense and react to danger. Maya Le Tissier and Rosa Kafaji get some love for their performances over the weekend. They then look forward to the week's WSL fixtures and the Champions League draw—which English club has the best chance of making it through? And finally, predictions.
