Jonas Eidevall was pleased by both the performance and result on Wednesday, as we saw off London City Lionesses to book our place in the Conti Cup final four.
"We wanted and needed to get back to winning ways," said the head coach after the game. "We wanted and needed to keep another clean sheet, so it was good to see.
"We scored some great goals today and played some great football. Now, we need to recover, refresh and get ready for Saturday."
Our 4-0 victory over London City saw Cloe Lacasse bag a brace in an excellent 90-minute display.
"I'm definitely really pleased for her and really pleased for the team. I think we made a potentially difficult night away look easy today and that's the biggest credit you can get on nights like this."
Wednesday evening was notable for another reason as young Gunner Vivienne Lia made her senior debut for the club.
"I think she looked very composed and she was brave on the ball. That was really nice to see. It's always nice to see young players taking the chance when they get it.
"Viv has made a really strong impression so far this season. She has been really good in training and she's worked really hard to deserve this chance to come on. It was a good moment, both for the team and for her."
Now, our focus turns to Saturday with a huge WSL clash with Manchester United at Emirates Stadium.
"We're super excited. Let's make it a memorable one. Let's bring the energy. Let's bring the noise and let's create something together."
