    Brilliant from Lobato there too. Whitehouse got herself a little bit in no-man's land on that high ball but Lobato positioned herself superbly

    Fitzgerald has been a bit disappointing at right back today tbh
    She’s a striker!!! What more do you expect from her?

    Muya looks class. Early yellow for their LB helps. 

    Until the last 2 mins it's been all us

    I know, I can still be disappointed in her inability to pass 10 yards, that's no different wherever you are on the pitch

    Enjoyable 1st half

    Great half. We genuinely looked by far the better team and we haven't been able to say that many times this season even in the games we've won. Our lack of final ball continues to let us down but if we can have a half like that again we only need one chance, just like earlier in the season when we were winning our games. My fear is that the team will start to tire against this higher standard of player and there is next to nothing we can bring on off the bench to change the game and freshen up. Hopefully the longer it goes at 0-0 the more these Leicester players will let the fear get to them and we can nick it. This team deserves promotion, I want it so badly for them.

    This summary could be applied to a number of games the men had at the start of the last season almost word for word 🙂

    Brilliant first half did their keeper make a save though lol, hope we can take it second half.

    I like to think it's a naughty squad player or a academy lad that was late for training this week

    We did well to get her to sign a new deal a few weeks ago

    Is the grass long ?
    don’t seem to be able to dribble at pace and the passing seems laboured

    Think the 30 degree heat isn’t helping

    Can't believe the Leicester player's fallen for that mind

    More likely because it's 29° air temperature and therefore ground temp is even higher. Football stadiums tend to be a real heat trap so I wouldn't be surprised if it's pushing 35 down there.

    Yep, been told by someone who is there it’s ridiculously hot pitchside.

    Leicester look like they’re readying a triple sub, including Spok lookalike Neville

    I don’t mean physically, more the ball doesn’t seem to be running nicely and they seems to have to have ball under foot when dribbling instead of it being ahead of them.
