For our first game following the recent international break, Marc Skinner made three changes to the side that started against Wolfsburg in the Champions League last month, including the return of Phallon Tullis-Joyce in goal after a three-game injury absence. Jess Park and Elisabeth Terland also came back in, with Safia Middleton-Patel, Simi Awujo and Fridolina Rolfo moving to the bench.
Dominique Janssen scored what proved to be the winner midway through the second half, converting a free-kick from just outside the box.
Elisabeth Terland’s 10th goal of the season, scored towards the end of the first half, had originally put United into the lead, but that was cancelled out by West Ham forward Shekiera Martinez not long after the restart.
