Match report: Manchester United 0-1 Arsenal Women

We maintained our perfect start to the season in dramatic style on Monday night, as Danielle van de Donk scored a last-gasp winner to secure a 1-0 victory over Manchester United.

This was our first ever meeting with the Red Devils in the WSL, and Joe Montemurro made just one change to the side that ran out 4-0 winners over Fiorentina last Thursday, with Jordan Nobbs making her first start since suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury in November 2018.

United carved open the game’s first opportunity on a blistering counter as Jess Siggsworth picked out Ella Toone, who headed wide from inside the area.
