WLC SF Arsenal (A) 06/02/25

Yay a final that I can't see!


Clashes with Premier League v Brighton.

Might knock this WSL team watching on the head. Too many clashes
 
I don't understand how the WSL can allow that? They are clearly mocking an Asian name. How is different than if they all used their fingers to make slanty eyes?
I don’t think you’re anywhere near the mark with that.

I remember hearing it at Plymouth in 1988. The Argyle supporters shouted it throughout the game at Eric’s Nixon, every time he took a goal kick.
 
Yamashita gives a dodgy defence more confidence - until further notice she should be the number 1. Mary with 2 cracking finishes - understand those who criticised her pen but I get what she was trying to do.

Kerolin and Aoba were excellent too.
I think you are spot on , not to chuck Keating under the bus , but a break for her maybe be the right thing , and she still only 20 , so still got a full career in front of her , and has seen tonight, she's a big blue , loving the win.

Fair enough. To me, it sounded as if they were mocking her Asian name and attempting to be sly about.

Eric Nixon is just your standard issue white, English guy. They maybe were just telling him he's shit. :)
 
A thoroughly deserved victory with two great goals from Fowler. Their pen never should've been given as Knaak clearly got the ball. Other than that I can't recall Yama having to make a save of any note. We must have hit the woodwork at least 3 times as well as the missed penalty (Fowler probably thinking the keeper would do the same as Sunday's effort). A reuninon with Bronze & Walsh await in the final.

Thought Kerolin looked good with the ball at her feet but jury still out on other aspects of her game. Much better performance from Jill and Fujino looked threatening every time she got the ball. Thought we were better defensively too with Yamashita in goal but also Layzell at full back as she doesn't look to get forward quite as quick as the others in that position so we're less exposed if we do lose the ball. What little threat Arsenal had was mostly of our own making with some sloppy passing or just losing out in challenges on loose balls. Occasional long balls over the top still pose a threat though.

It's a classic chant of the 1980s, or even before , but wasn't just fucking boring tonight, it was like the Arsenal fans just ran out of songs , and wasn't it sweet at the very end , get in Mary Fowler
 
Absolutely buzzing. Thoroughly deserved. Can’t wait for my first cup final next month!
 
Brilliant result that - 2 fantastic goals

Had there been any Instagram post from Chloe Kelly yet? Probably not - I bet she's gone quiet.
 
Anyone else hoping a Blue would have shouted, Your shit aggghhhh when Cardoteny started the run for her pen? The nause Tarquinettes being as nause as the Tarquins.
