Mariona and Little win UWCL weekly awards

Kim Little and Mariona Caldentey have both won UEFA Women's Champions League awards this week, as we sealed our spot in the final.

Our skipper spearheaded a superb comeback in Lyon, dominating the midfield, dictating play and winning a host of individual duels across the pitch. Little was named Player of the Round for her display.

Elsewhere, Mariona's special strike on the strike of half-time was voted the best Goal of the Week across the two semi-finals.

After we'd levelled the tie on aggregate within the opening five minutes, our Gunners went in search of another and the honour fell to our Spanish maestro.
