The Women’s Super League returns after their Christmas break with the last fixtures taking place on 14 December. It is back with a bang with a huge fixture in Arsenal v Manchester United.
Arsenal are third, in the all important last Champions League qualification spot, while United a point behind them in fourth. A loss for either will be a huge blow to their title hopes with Manchester City already eight and nine points ahead of them respectively, so their chances are already slim.
It is also a crucial game as Tottenham are in fifth and just one point behind United so Spurs could ruffle some feathers when they play tomorrow against Leicester City.
Wrexham caused an upset in the FA Cup last night as they knocked out Premier League club Nottingham Forest on penalties. One of their Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds was in the stands to watch it and manager Phil Parkinson had a catch up with his boss pre-game. He told TNT Sports:
I had a chat with him before the game and it was great to see him over here with his family. I think Ryan’s mum was here tonight, which was for the first time. So it’s really special and I hope they’ve enjoyed the night. I’m sure that on the flight back home tonight, they’ll be having a few glasses of wine to celebrate.
