Women's Team: United eventually ease to win over Spurs
Manchester United 3 - 0 Tottenham Hotspur
Elisabeth Terland netted her first two goals for Manchester United, guiding us to a comfortable 3-0 victory over Tottenham in the Women's Super League.
A closer look at what happened
Elisabeth Terland's first two goals for United, scored just before half-time, proved to be the game-changer, with the Norwegian striker demonstrating sharp instincts in the box to give us a lead that Spurs couldn't recover from.
Maya Le Tissier sealed the victory with a well-taken penalty just before the hour mark. Meanwhile, the Reds continue their impressive defensive record, having now gone four consecutive matches without conceding across all competitions.
Let's explore some of the best reaction
Olivia T, in her article for European Super Football, said: "It was an unusual match, to be honest, and the stats we have all seen don’t quite tell the full story of the scoreline. However, that result ultimately highlights just how clinical Manchester United were, particularly Elisabeth Terland’s finishing. Her two superb goals just before the break completely changed the game—after that, Spurs were always playing catch-up. Despite having plenty of possession and several set-pieces, they couldn’t find a way past Tullis-Joyce or United’s solid defence."
Another United fan, Lois Howard, added: "Great win from the reds. I thought United were comfortable throughout the match and Spurs looked like they were never going to win. It has been a fantastic start to the season and I am excited to see what comes next. I would love to see us challenge for the WSL title this season."
