Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Getting out of Leigh Sports Village Stadium with a point and clean-sheet is a good thing, all things considered. Ahead of the match, Mark Skinner’s team were top of the table after two impressive wins against Leicester (4-0) and London City Lionesses (5-1), and Melvine Malard looked unstoppable in front of […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! I am lost for words. Speechless. The magnitude of the Arsenal Women’s result against European serial-winners Olympique Lyonnais is gargantuan, especially if you consider that we travelled to France on the back of a 2-1 loss at the Emirates Stadium. Very few people fancied us to walk out of the Groupama […]
Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! The pitch was terrible, I agree, but for how long should we continue to bring up such poor excuses? If anything, we should consider ourselves lucky to have left Madrid with every player is good health, which is something that Real Madrid cannot say. The Estadio Alfredo Di Stéfano pitch was […]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! Another game went by, drawing towards the end of a very deflating campaign. Sure, we retained the Conti Cup defeating Emma Hayes’ team, but this season will surely go down as the most disappointing one of the past five years. All the promises of the brave run-in both in the […]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! Italian coaching legend Arrigo Sacchi, back when he was leading AC Milan to back-to-back European Cups and Clubs World Cup, often stated that it takes coraggio, cuore e culo to win a football game – which roughly translates to courage, heart and……..luck. It surely took the three of them to […]
Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! Well, I didn’t expect to find myself here, discussing a home defeat to Liverpool in the Women’s Super League opener, in front of a record-setting 54’115 supporters at the Emirates Stadium. What started as a wonderful day to kick-start our challenge at the title, ended up with Jonas Eidevall apologizing […]
This Arsenal team has got something about it, hasn’t? From one-nil down to three-one up in the Conti Cup final against Chelsea. From one-nil down to two-nil up in the Champions League against Bayern Munich. From one-nil down to two-nil up in the league against Manchester City. Three big games against three big clubs, at […]
What a month, right? From winning the Conti Cup against Chelsea to qualifying for the Champions League semifinals for the first time in ten years! We March on, don’t we?No, I won’t apologize for the silly pun. Last night’s win against Bayern Munich was intoxicating and you will have to pay the price for it, […]
Not ideal, right? Last night’s result leaves us in a very tricky position because we have to go to Amsterdam next week and win, if we want to make it to the Champions League group stage. All in all, the draw is a fair result as we started slowly and Ajax looked the better side […]
Today I’m happy that football won. Today we’re all happy that football won. North London remains red thanks to a goal from Beth Mead and a brace from Caitlin Foord, despite Tottenham’s attempts to turn a football match into a Royal Rumble, and we are all set for the final showdown, next Sunday. We had […]
