GOAAAAAL! Kai Havertz score the most powerful goal in football history to level for Arsenal against Southampton
Arsenal take on Everton at Emirates Stadium in the WSL on Sunday afternoon with the vanishingly rare luxury of an entire week to prepare for the game. Not only do Arsenal have a seven day gap between games for one of the few occasions this season, their opponents, Everton, played in the Conti Cup on Wednesday evening.
Having played four Champions League qualifiers and with a leggy performance at Leicester on Sunday, the interval was needed. It has also given the Gunners time to get defenders Steph Catley and Leah Williamson back into the squad following injury, which is needed with Laura Wienroither’s injury last weekend.
Brian Sorensen’s Everton play in a very similar manner to Arsenal’s recent UWCL opponents Hacken and that preparation will prove useful for Jonas Eidevall’s team. It marks the beginning of a massive week with an away tie at Bayern Munich on Wednesday night followed by a big WSL clash at home to Chelsea next Saturday.
Eidevall will need to use his squad over the coming week and showed a willingness to do so at Leicester last weekend, light rotation is going to be the order of the day with a couple of changes in each game. It remains to be seen how that might manifest itself against the Toffees on Sunday.
