00:00 Robert, that's the magic of the FA Cup, but you know what?
00:03 We're fourth time lucky, we really wanted to beat Man City and look, we did.
00:08 Yeah, and I actually think we deserve it.
00:10 I mean, the game that goes through tonight is amazing.
00:13 All the players coming in, you can feel it.
00:16 And you know, we scored that 1-1 in the last second, we deserved that.
00:19 And over time, we were actually going for it and then back in the penalty shooting.
00:23 So, no, it's a wonderful feeling.
00:25 And going 1-0 down so early on, there was no heads down.
00:29 And it was, right, how can we make this game work for us for the rest of it?
00:33 And even pushing through that extra time, you know, we piled on the pressure
00:37 and we ended up coming on top.
00:39 Yeah, I mean, it's very frustrating to give them that goal so easily, right?
00:43 But that's football.
00:44 And I just think the character for the last 30 minutes of first half
00:47 is actually really good football.
00:49 And I think we pushed them down and we showed that we want to dictate this game.
00:51 And we take the duels and we are very sharp with the ball.
00:54 I think Grace was amazing in the 10-roll, for example, Martha in the 9-roll.
00:57 And then second half, we took over the game and we went for it.
01:00 And then, of course, we scored in the last second, but it's an even better feeling, right?
01:04 So, I'm very proud of the girls because they show now that we not only compete,
01:07 we actually beat the top three teams.
01:09 So, that's really nice to see.
01:10 And also, how happy are you with the players that came on?
01:13 Because they also made a massive difference in this game.
01:15 Yeah, I think it was a perfect game in that way because the starting players did amazing work.
01:20 And then, yes, and Olga a little bit tired.
01:23 Kitty and Ross coming in with a lot of energy.
01:25 Beth taking over for Martha, make sure we have the leadership up there and she scored the goals right.
01:29 And Shuan and Matilda was also excellent when they came in with the energy and everything.
01:32 So, I'm big, big impressed by those players as well.
01:37 Also, talk to me about Becky Spencer today.
01:40 I mean, she's been training very well the last few weeks.
01:43 And then she got the chance the last game and I think she had a great game against Arsenal.
01:46 And today, I just think she's so calm in the goal with her feet.
01:49 She's doing the saves. And then on the penalty shootout, I mean, those girls who missed the penalties today
01:53 is actually the one who's actually scoring in the World Cup.
01:55 So, I'm so happy for her.
01:59 And looking forward, what are we going to do?
02:01 We've got Leicester next weekend here at home.
02:03 You know, all the fans, you could really hear them today.
02:06 Do you just want to get these crowds bigger and get more people enjoying this football?
02:11 Yeah, and I think they will bring their friends because I think they loved it today.
02:13 And I just love that they were with us for the 97th minute in the game
02:17 because you can hear them in the last minute just cheering and giving us the extra energy.
02:21 And in the overtime, they were with us. In the penalty shootout, they were screaming when they were shooting
02:25 and it was calm and we had a shootout.
02:27 So, they were with us and helped us.
02:28 And I just hope that they come back for Leicester game.
