“We were really happy with the nature of it, there were some really great goals scored and we also kept a clean sheet, so it was a very good day for us but now we know that we must back that up in a busy week ahead.
“Coming into a week with three games is particularly demanding and especially tough on the girls who have been away with their countries as they don’t get a break before getting straight back into club football. However, the main thing is that everyone comes back healthy and injury-free.
“It’s going to be a busy period but it’s a big push now for Christmas. We have a week to go and I know everyone’s excited coming up to the games that we have left this year with Everton and Man United to play as well. So it’s one big push now before Christmas and hopefully we can get maximum points from our three remaining games of the year.
“The first of those is against Bristol City today and while they’ve struggled for a few points so far this season, they’ve been there or thereabouts in a lot of games.
“They’re a tough outfit. I’ve watched a few of their games and they’re not easy to break down. No game is easy in this league and we’re going to be asked to be at it and at the top of our game if we want to come away with the three points.
“The Bristol City squad includes plenty of familiar faces to us. Unfortunately I think Furney [Rachel Furness] is injured so she probably won’t be playing but I’m sure the other ex-Reds will be aiming to do well on their return to Prenton Park.
