Speaking to LUTV after Leeds United Women\u2019s 4-0 triumph over Chorley, boss Simon Wood was impressed with how well his squad returned to action after a lengthy spell since their last fixture.<\/p>\n
Goals from Ellie White, Chloe Dixon, Brittany Sanderson and Sian Gibrill-Keating fired United to all three points in Lancashire and with it, the team now sit top of the FA WNL Division One North table.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt feels really good,\u201d Wood explained. \u201cWe haven\u2019t played a game of football for what feels like an eternity since the Christmas break. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe have had two games called off and coming over to Chorley on a Thursday night when the players have been at work all day is not easy. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe have put in a really, really good display but I think the really pleasing thing from us in terms of the team today is I think you have seen a few sides of our game. <\/p>\n
\u201cYou have seen when we have had the space to play how quickly we can play. I think the first goal is a really good example of that.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt times in the second half, we knew we would have to defend because Chorley are a good side. They have not lost many games in the league this year. You can see from the quality they have got and how they play the game. <\/p>\n
\u201cSo, we knew we would have to defend but I think the work rate and the effort, the levels the players put into defending that second half, they got their rewards at the end.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is a 4-0 performance away from home in a very competitive league so the players should be really proud of themselves this evening.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Speaking to LUTV after Leeds United Women\u2019s 4-0 triumph over Chorley, boss Simon Wood was impressed with how…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":698896,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8814],"tags":[748,393,4884,1860,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-698895","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-leeds","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-england","10":"tag-great-britain","11":"tag-leeds","12":"tag-uk","13":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115902299943666005","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/698895","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=698895"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/698895\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/698896"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=698895"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=698895"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=698895"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
