Spence: Blue Girls In A Great Place
Everton Ladies manager Andy Spence says he is “excited” about his Everton side despite their 2-1 loss to defending WSL 1 champions Manchester City on Sunday.
The Blue Girls suffered their first defeat in the Continental Cup this season – having won their opening two matches – after a battling display at the Academy Stadium.
The home side went ahead through an Izzy Christiansen header, but Everton were back on level teams in the second half as Simone Magill nodded home.
City grabbed their winner 10 minutes from time through ex-Everton forward Nikita Parris. But despite the loss, Spence was encouraged by his side’s display.
