Another thumping win in a North London Derby, what a delight! A brace from Caitlin Foord and a goal apiece from captain Kim Little and Frida Maanum painted north London red once again, propelling the team much closer to the top of the table. We might have moved from fourth to…fourth but we made a […]
“We cruised to victory against Reading…” reads the Arsenal website, in the aftermath of our thumping four-nil win against the Royals, at Meadow Park.Goals from Kim Little, Frida Maanum and Leah Williamson, as well as an own-goal from Emma Mukandi, sealed our third consecutive win in the league and helped closing the gap with the […]
Arsenal Women lifted the Continental Tyres Cup for the sixth time since its inception, the last one being in 2018. It’s the first trophy for Jonas Eidevall as Arsenal head-coach and the first trophy for the club since the league win in 2019 – four years ago. Contrarily to what a bitter Emma Hayes said […]
The good news is that we created chance after chance.The bad news is that we had to wait until the extra time to convert one of them. I feel like I am writing the same thing over and over, lately. I cannot say any bad word about how the team is setup, how the players […]
The AWFC Journal – A tale of chances taken and missedA new page of the AWFC Journal was long overdue, I know. It’s been a while and more precisely since the home draw to Chelsea, which left a bittersweet aftertaste. Although we comfortably dispatched Aston Villa in the Conti Cup (3-0) and Leeds United in […]
It’s fair to say that the players did their best to ensure we would all have a nice winter break: the thumping of Zurich in Schaffhausen was embellished with some truly spectacular goals and skills, with Frida Maanum’s delicate free kick scooping the virtual goal of the night award. The Norwegian wonderkid, who is truly […]
Jonas spoke, the players listened.The Swede was very vocal about the need of being humble after the win in Lyon, pushing away any talk about us winning the Champions League or being favourites to replicate our success from 2007, and the team responded with a mature, assured performance against Zurich.Goals from Jordan Nobbs and Lina […]
What a night at the Groupama Stadium! A sensational win at the defending champions, built on a clever game plan perfectly executed by the players on the pitch and lots of solidarity across the different units. This Olympique Lyonnais team had never conceded more than four goals in their whole history and didn’t lose a […]
What a nice way to start the new campaign! The four-nil win at home against Brighton had many protagonists and several highlights but, to me, Stina Blackstenius was the story of the night. The Swede, whose arrival raised a few eyebrows for all the wrong reasons, has been a constant pain for the Seagulls with […]
Attempt number two. After the postponement of what should have been our season opener at Manchester City, the Arsenal Women team is finally about to kick-start their 2022/23 campaign with one target: lift the trophy that evaded us last year by one single point. We had the best attack, the best defence, registered only one […]
