‘We should be proud of ourselves’

United had led in the first half, thanks to Toone’s opener, but looked to be heading for defeat late on in the fixture, after second-half goals from Frida Maanum and Laura Wienroither put the Gunners ahead.

But Turner headed the Reds level on 85 minutes, before Russo also scored a header – in the first minute of added time – to clinch the three points.

“It was euphoria,” Turner said of Alessia’s goal.

“As soon as the ball hit the back of the net, I couldn’t [celebrate]. I was just so gassed!”
