Fantastic game !!
Hope Rafaelle is ok, she was a beast !!
Magnificent result! We had a few iffy moments earlier in the year but we seem to be holding our own better against the other contenders now. At the start of the season I would certainly be happy with 8 points from the 4 Chelsea and City games.
Excellent. Good selection, good tactics , great execution. Jonas was tasked with improving our performances against other top 4
