Hello, Arsenal Women aficionados! Arsenal Women played their first friendly match of their US tour and defeated hosts Washington Spirit, who currently sit third in the NWSL table after the first half of the season.

Good morning, Arsenal Women aficionados! Before getting back to the North London Derby played at a sold-out Emirates Stadium, I would like to take a minute to celebrate getting into a second consecutive Conti Cup final.
