Mared Griffiths led the charge with a remarkable hat-trick, while Lea Schuller and new signing Rebeca Bernal each scored twice. Manager Eva Olid expressed immense satisfaction with her young players' performance, emphasizing their first win together and the importance of building their attacking identity. Olid praised the faith she placed in young talents like Griffiths and Jess Simpson, who both delivered exceptional performances. She highlighted the need to focus on defensive improvements but acknowledged the strong showing from Griffiths, who netted three goals. Olid also commended new signing Monica Jusu Bah, appreciating her speed and ability to break the line. Despite not scoring, Jusu Bah was seen as a valuable addition to the team. Olid joked about resting captain Maya Le Tissier but affirmed her fitness and readiness for every match. The team's next fixture is against West Ham United Women this Sunday.",
