The hosts had started brightly, with former United forward Rachel Williams testing keeper Phallon Tullis-Joyce from the edge of the area.<\/p>\n
But United quickly took control and led when January signing Lea Schuller tried to meet a Zigiotti Olme cross, but the sheer power of the Swede’s ball meant it flew past the Germany striker and into the net.<\/p>\n
The Foxes rallied in the second half, with French forward Noemie Mouchon lively and causing problems after coming off the bench.<\/p>\n
Fellow substitute Shannon O’Brien also felt she should have been awarded a penalty when Anna Sandberg barged into her in the box, but referee Stacey Fullicks waved away Leicester protests.<\/p>\n
Boss Rick Passmoor disagreed with the decision, but said afterwards he was encouraged by his team’s performance.<\/p>\n
“I am really proud of this team,” he added. “If we play like that every week, we’ll be fine. <\/p>\n
“We’re hurting but you wouldn’t want to be with any other group of players at this moment in time.”<\/p>\n
Ultimately, Leicester’s improvement proved fruitless as Terland provided the final flourish, showing great footwork before finishing clinically into the corner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The hosts had started brightly, with former United forward Rachel Williams testing keeper Phallon Tullis-Joyce from the edge…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":413175,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[49,50,51,47,52,48],"class_list":{"0":"post-413174","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-news","11":"tag-top-stories","12":"tag-topnews","13":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/413174","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=413174"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/413174\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/413175"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=413174"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=413174"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=413174"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
