Fantastic game at O. T. with the women beating P. S. G. 2-1 in ECL. That's played 3 and won 3. Sitting third in the table.

All 3 goals were outstanding, Jess Park was excellent yet again. She has been a fantastic signing, so skilful.

Apart from the aberration against Villa last weekend it has been a terrific season, long may it continue. City at O. T. at the weekend, again live on BBC. Looking forward to it.

{Ed025's Note - i watched a lot of that as well IWOTB, like you i thought Park was excellent mate and the move for the winner was superb..

Yes Ed it was a fantastic move for the winning goal.

Without wishing to sound patronising, the standard and skill levels within women's football has massively increased over a relatively short period of a few decades. If someone had said to me back then I would actively look to watch and then enjoy, appreciate and not compare it to the men's game, I would of asked serious questions as to their mental health!

Go girl's and keep improving as you all have.

{Ed025's Note - largest growing sport in the world Womens football mate, the standard has certainly improved over the last couple of years..

My daughter plays for our local team and there are now more girls training than boys on an evening. Have to say it is great to see.

Title ix here in the US mandated that federally funded schools had to provide equal sports opportunities for women which resulted in an enormous explosion in women's sports, and was no doubt responsible for US dominance until recently. I'm going back more than 20 years now to when my daughter played both High School and club and might have gone to college on a scholarship if she had been so inclined.

I do recall her final HS match against their nemesis which despite having had a poor season they won. When I congratulated her she responded "You know what I liked most, Dad? I made 3 of their girls cry! " Over the years of rivalries there were scores to settle. Those girls were brutal.
