Arsenal bounced back from their heartbreaking Champions League loss on Monday, securing a victory in the Women's Super League against a determined Leicester City side.
Frida Maanum's impressive long-range strike sealed the win for Arsenal at Meadow Park in front of 3,982 spectators.
Despite the smaller crowd, Arsenal manager Jonas Eidevall expressed his enjoyment of both intimate and grander environments, drawing a comparison to his appreciation for both fine dining and pub grub.
Eidevall also noted that his team could have scored more than one goal, with Katie McCabe missing a first-half penalty and Maanum nearly securing a hat-trick of long-range strikes.
Leicester goalkeeper Janina Leitzig was a standout performer, making a crucial penalty save and preventing further goals with impressive saves. While Arsenal's four-day turnaround from their European match might have seemed daunting, they were able to secure a much-needed win.
Leicester manager Willie Kirk praised his team's performance, highlighting their significant improvement since their previous 4-0 losses to Arsenal. The result marks a valuable step forward for Arsenal in their Super League campaign, while Leicester can take pride in their impressive display against one of the league's top sides.
