Crossways – A Women’s Football Show With Steph Houghton and Ian Wright
What Do the Opening Fixtures Say About the New WSL Season?
About the episode
Wrighty and Steph go deep with their analysis of the WSL opening weekend’s fixtures: what and who surprised them and what the performances and squads say about the season ahead. They give their reactions to Arsenal vs. London City Lionesses at the Emirates, including Katie Reid giving away the penalty, how that shaped the game, and Reid’s individual performance. And of course, they discuss Olivia Smith as part of Arsenal’s starting XI and her spectacular goal. Steph talks about how Man City can get the best from Viv Miedema this season, what Grace Clinton can add, and the importance of working to get Bunny in the box. Both hosts show love for Ellie Carpenter’s cross and Aggie Beever-Jones’s beautiful goal. The pair finish with a passionate debate about those halftime interviews and, of course, their predictions.
