With her reputation for scoring beautiful goals from distance, Maanum delivered once again during our 5-0 thrashing of Brighton & Hove Albion at Emirates Stadium.

Our Norwegian received the ball in space on the very edge of the area and let fly in a characteristic fashion, leaving the goalkeeper with no chance. 

Russo took just 62 seconds to open proceedings at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - our second-fastest goal in WSL history.

After receiving a scooped pass from Mariona Caldentey, our number 23 struck first-time across Becky Spencer to set our course for victory. Alongside Steph Catley, Russo is also up for the WSL Player of the Month award.
