Olivia Smith has won September’s Barclays Women’s Super League Goal of the Month award for her blockbuster against London City Lionesses.

The former Liverpool forward made an instant impression at Emirates Stadium when she picked the ball up 35 yards from goal, beat a defender and unleashed a right-footed effort from 25 yards past a helpless Elene Lete in the visiting goal on the opening day.
