Match report: Arsenal Women 4-0 Coventry United

We booked our place in the semi-finals of the Vitality Women’s FA Cup on Friday as we defeated Coventry United 4-0 at Meadow Park.

With two massive fixtures coming up at Emirates Stadium next week, Jonas Eidevall named a rotated side with nine changes to the starting XI that ran out 3-0 winners over Brighton on Sunday.

Most notably, Tobin Heath completed her return from injury, while Frida Maanum and Jordan Nobbs started in midfield, leaving Leah Williamson out of the matchday squad to gain some extra rest.

With the visitors lining up in a 5-3-2 formation and conceding little space in behind, we had to work hard for our opener with chances arriving few and far between in the opening half hour.
