What the managers said: Chelsea 3-1 Leicesterpublished at 22:07 5 March
Chelsea went eight points clear at the top of the Women's Super League after a 3-1 win over Leicester on Wednesday. Here is what the managers said after the game:
Chelsea boss Sonia Bompastor: "Really important. This result means a lot. When you just dropped points it's really important to win the game after and the reaction was good from my players, but I was expecting that."
On the performance: "We were able to score really quickly. We had a lot of opportunities. We could have been more clinical in the box. When we were 2-0 up we cannot concede the goal we conceded. When you are winning 2-0 you need to control more things and we gave the goal to Leicester. We need to control the game in that aspect."
On big games coming up: "We are ready mentally, physically and in all the aspects. We are really looking forward to those moments. It is in these big games you can win titles."
Leicester boss Amandine Miquel speaking to Sky Sports: "We played well in and out of possession. The attitude and character we showed tonight is important. We did give them some trouble and that's the most important thing."
On if she is making steady progress with Leicester: "When you take a new club it is a new way of organising and a lot of changes and it takes time. Now we are doing a bit better and the players are understanding what we want to do."
On how Ruby Mace is after she was taken off on a stretcher: "We don't know. We prefer not to say anything until we have a scan and more information. We hope she will be fine."
