FT: Everton 1-2 London City
Everton manager Brian Sorensen, speaking to Sky Sports: “I think we weren’t sharp enough in the right moments. I think the girls put everything they could into it in terms of getting goals and goalscoring opportunities. I also felt everything dropped to their advantage, in the first time there were 10 free kicks for them and one for us. It’s hard to get rhythm and momentum. I’m disappointed on behalf of the girls because I think they deserve more.”
On whether he wished they played more like they did at the end of the game: “I think we started a bit more preactive and [tried to] see if we can get in behind. We created a big, big chance when Toni got down that right flank. They hadn’t had proper shots on goals but then they score on a set piece. The second goal, maybe we were a bit too aggressive there so we break apart and they create a transition and scored. The girls then reacted really well. I thought we had okay opportunities in the end to get a point.”
On whether his side needed to be more clinical: “We need to be sharper, that’s for sure.”
On the substitutions’ impact: “I think they did everything they could. They are very good players, it’s a very good team. I think we deserved at least a point.”
