Goalkeeper & Defence

Anneke Borbe (7/10):

Only had one save to make all game but it was an outstanding one early on to prevent United taking the lead.

Emily Fox (6/10):

Kept tabs on Rolfo and Sandberg well, nullifying United's usually lively left-hand side.

Leah Williamson (7/10):

Looked extremely solid on her first WSL start this season. Full of composure in her defending and also showcased her wonderful passing range.

Steph Catley (6/10):

Good on the ball and generally solid at the back. Should've done better with a big chance from a McCabe corner, though.

Katie McCabe (7/10):

Delivered really good set pieces that resulted in some of Arsenal's biggest chances.

Midfield

Kim Little (6/10):

Did plenty of good stuff, winning plenty of duels and moving the ball well, but should've scored with arguably Arsenal's best chance of the day in the first half.

Mariona Caldentey (7/10):

An all-round strong display in the middle of the park in which she showed quality in possession and battled brilliantly out of it. Wasn't as creative as Arsenal needed her to be in order to break the deadlock, however.

Frida Maanum (6/10):

Good in possession and took up good positions to be on the receiving end of a couple of half-chances, just didn't take either of them.

Attack

Beth Mead (6/10):

A little too loose in possession at times. Worked hard, though, and created a couple of good openings.

Alessia Russo (6/10):

Her hold-up play was excellent and that led to her carving out opportunities for others on a couple of occasions. Didn't get tons of service herself but didn't make the most of what she did receive.

Olivia Smith (6/10):

A lively performance in which she caused problems, created chances and could've broke the deadlock, if not for a strong save from Tullis-Joyce.

Subs & Manager

Caitlin Foord (6/10):

Brought plenty of directness to the game, albeit without being able to find that goal Arsenal needed.

Stina Blackstenius (6/10):

Showcased her intelligent movement up top and was on the end of a couple of decent chances, but did about as well as she could with them.

Smilla Holmberg (N/A):

Came on for her debut in the closing stages, after signing for the club earlier this month.

Victoria Pelova (N/A):

Had a great chance in the final moments but could only force Tullis-Joyce into a great save.

Lotte Wubben-Moy (N/A):

A late sub in the final moments.

Renee Slegers (6/10):

Little she could do about the fact that her team just lacked that clinical touch in front of goal needed to win the game. Maybe could've made some different changes and at different times, but Arsenal created more than enough to get the win here.
