Arsenal Ladies celebrate

By Lloyd Webb

Natalia says Arsenal Ladies can compete for the Women’s Super League title this season.

The striker scored twice in Saturday's 3-1 win against Bayern Munich on the team's pre-season tour to Spain, during which they completed a series of gruelling fitness tests and team-building exercises.

"We were working really hard and this is the result. We showed that we are able to compete with any team"

Natalia says the Ladies' time in Seville has put them in the best condition for the new season.

“I think we are going to fight for every title,” she told Arsenal.com. “We hope to win some of them and we have enough players to fight for all of them. Arsenal have enough players to get to the top of the league again.

“The team has spent the week together and we built as a group and it is good to train together and do activities together. I think for the group it has been a really hard week but it is good to keep going and start the league in the best condition.

“We are working in the best atmosphere now. We have our own changing room, our own pitch and our own space so it is like going to work. Now the team feels like a professional football team and this is the point and we need to keep working.

“We were working really hard and this is the result. We showed that we are able to compete with any team. We need to keep working together to start the league in the best condition.”
