Everton

Everton manager Brian Sorensen on playing at Goodison Park: "It means a lot for the women's game in general and we have this opportunity. This can be one of the first moves like it.

"It's not about the emotions today. It's about being professional and playing as a team. We want to start good here."

A miserable day on Merseyside but that's not dampening the spirits inside Goodison Park where the music is blasting as the players warm up.

New branding for the women's team adorns the Bullens Road stand and the upper tier of the Gwladys Street End.

The Gwladys Street End has plenty of new flags hanging. I can see tributes for Courtney Brosnan and Megan Finnigan among others.

To the casual observer, Everton v Tottenham is just another Women's Super League fixture.

But history will be made on Sunday at 14:30 BST, with Everton playing their first match at Goodison Park since it became the permanent home of the women's team.

Everton have played at Goodison Park before, most recently in November 2024, when they beat Liverpool 1-0 in the Merseyside derby, but on their previous appearances at the 133-year-old stadium, they were guests of Everton men.

But following the relocation of the men's team to the newly constructed Hill Dickinson Stadium on Liverpool's waterfront, Goodison Park is embarking on a new era as the largest dedicated women's stadium in England.

More succinctly, in the words of Everton defender Kenzie Weir: "It's ours."

Weir is more familiar with the stadium than most of her team-mates, as her dad, former Scotland international David Weir, made more than 250 appearances for the Toffees between 1999 and 2007.

There are photos of her on the pitch as a child and she "remembers the atmosphere" from his playing days. Now, it's the stage for her and her team-mates to "showcase what we've got".

Manchester United

Manchester United goalscorer Jayde Riviere speaking to Sky Sports: "We really wanted to focus this week on bouncing back from our Champions League game. We wanted to jump into this. The team we played is a new team and we don't know what to expect. All we control is how we play and you saw that ruthlessness of the Man Utd identity. It was a really good team performance."

On scoring nine goals in two WSL games: "You see how connected we are as a team off the pitch and that translates on the pitch. We have a great group of girls."

I'm absolutely delighted for her. It's been a real tough journey for her. A lot of people keep asking 'Where's Sam?', and when you know what's going on in the background, you just can't wait for her to get back on that pitch and that's where she belongs.

She belongs out on a football pitch and I'm delighted that she could get her goal. Get her 100th goal for Chelsea. She's waited a long time for that moment, so I'm really happy for her. Hopefully, she can stay fit, stay healthy and contribute this season.

It's a damp, rainy day on Merseyside to mark the dawn of a new era for Everton women.

The first match at their new home Goodison Park gets under way soon against Tottenham.

Manager Brian Sorensen says in his programme notes he believes the Old Lady "holds a bright future for our team".

He adds that the move is a "clear sign of ambition" from the club.

With a 4-1 thrashing over local rivals Liverpool last week, Everton will look to build on that momentum here at their new home.

All over at Villa Park.

The scoreline doesn't tell the full story. Villa played well, Chelsea were far from perfect, but once again Sonia Bompastor's side have won.

Oh, and Sam Kerr scored on her first game back.

You're seeing the reactions from her teammates and how happy they are.

That first goal will have been so important for her. It's scrappy but she won't care about that. She'll care that she's put the ball in the back of the net and got her team that win.

When a player does come back from injury and they go games without scoring and it goes on and on, there's that pressure. It will be a huge weight taken off her shoulders.

Millie Bright has been booked for throwing the ball away to delay the restart.

London City are throwing forward some late attacks but Manchester United are keeping them at bay.

They've been creative but haven't had end product and have struggled at the back.
