TAYLOR ON DAZN 🗣

“It’s a step for us. I said in my press conference yesterday I really admire Barcelona and what they’ve done. We’re trying to replicate that and we know how hard that is to do.

“What they’ve done is so dominant for so many years. That’s really hard to replicate, we’re trying and this is a step forward for us. I’m really proud of the players and staff tonight."

TAYLOR ON DAZN 🗣

“Well [it's] fantastic for Naomi. We’d been playing a lot of short corners but a fantastic header at the back from Viv and Naomi stormed in and finished off really well.

“In her second Champions League game, she’s scored and assisted. She does really well for the second goal for Bunny.”
