If We Lose…We Go Down?Added:
This is the final game of the season.
Win and we're safe.
>> We only need a draw today.
>> But if we lose, it's out of our hands.
>> Yeah, that's a little bit close.
>> How we feeling about today?
>> Yeah, good. Sun's out, guns out. You know, good day for a win.
>> I >> How are you today?
>> I'm not allowed to say I feel nervous.
>> Did you say that? I feel sick with nerves and she wasn't able to eat.
>> Hi, Dom.
>> Hello.
>> Hello, mate.
>> How you feeling?
>> I'm feeling good. I'm feeling ready. I think trained very well last couple sessions. Um, and the girls, you know, you come into it, you go, "Oh, are they going to be super nervous?" They're not actually. They're just focused, which I think is a good sign.
>> Do you feel pressured?
>> There's pressure to make sure that we perform. It's one of them like if we actually play to our level and win the game. So, I think everything's in our hands as well in terms of, you know, win, draw. I mean, even technically, you can lose and stay up. So, like, >> I think they're probably feeling the pressure a little bit more than we are.
>> This is the Football Manager derby. To celebrate, we simulated five seasons into the future and showed our captain exactly how her career played out in game.
>> Sorry. Three as well.
>> No, that's actually rude. Till 2031.
Yeah. But you know that London Bees manager reached out to me this week.
>> What did he say?
>> He said, "What are you doing for next season?"
>> What did you say?
>> I didn't reply.
>> Obviously, >> the London Bees were buzzing around trying to sign her. But the real question is, who are you going to sign on your safe? Because for the first time ever, women's football is in Football Manager with the Barclays Women's Super League as one of the headline licensed competition. You can take charge of a WSL giant, build a WSL 2 underdog. Hit the link in the description, start your save, and let us know who you're managing first. Right then, Football Manager Derby. Final day, survival on the line.
>> Right. All good.
>> Yeah. Good warm up. Strong warm up. So, we always look and then we think if we warm up well, we're going to start the game well. And I think actually particularly like some of the triangles when you're in those little 3v3s you're popping the ball really really well. We know at home we always play good football. This is our home ground where we're always strong. That first 10 minutes we don't give them time. We'll settle into the game. We are a better team and we can dominate this game.
Right. Start fast. Be really brave on the ball. Intent is what matters. Like we said all week, don't hesitate. Don't be slow. If you see a moment to play a full pass, bang, you play it forward. If it doesn't work but the idea is right, we're happy. Big games, big players.
Here we go.
>> Performances. Come on.
>> Tags on three. ONE, TWO, THREE.
>> IN GOAL, FRANKIE ANGEL. And what we hope won't be, but we think could be her last game for the club. And she's what a servant she's been. Arguably, well, the best keeper in hashtag history, including the men, you know, the most clean sheets. No one else has ever done more than that. So, let's hope she signs off in style if she does in fact sign off. Flo Jackson at left back, captain, of course. Center back Saskia Herd alongside Liv Smith. No blue Antu today.
She's out injured. Uh right back we have uh Al Hussein in midfield. Also no Bonnie Hallwood starting. She's on the bench. I think she's got a bit of an illness but is available. So Alicia Mulaney comes into the midfield alongside Renee Johnson who of course we've kind of turned into a tough tackling center midfielder traditionally a center back. Header then we have Macy Nichols out wide absolute legend that is Emma Sam fresh off her goal in the S's cup final. On the other wing we have our Looney from West Ham Sai Walsh. And up front our top goal scorer Anna Norton with Bonnie Hallwood, Ruby Gaitley, Angela Nelson I, Tiger McWaters as a goalkeeper and Ariana Addison on the bench. Was a pretty strong bench to be honest. Ariana unlucky not to get more game time this year. She scored a lot of goals including a really great performance off the bench in the Essics Cup final recently. Ashley Hinks is the one to look out for. She's on the center circle right now. She's the captain.
She's got an absolute strike on her.
There's no getting away from that. She scored some worldies against us. We've had some great battles with Wimbledon over the last sort of four or five years. Traditionally, they used to come out on top in the tier four days, but it has been us more recently, of course, despite the fact they beat us before Christmas. Yeah, but the two Buckinghams in the Wimbledon team were ones to look out for as well. There's some some uh long-standing players like Billingham on the bench for Wimbledon as well. But it's all about the tags today. Let's get the result. Let's stay at tier three.
Get behind the team. This is big. Let's get it done, girls. Come on.
>> We play our football. We're going to be the hardest working team. That's how we win today. Okay, they're going to come out with a bit of fire. Okay, we need to match that and and have more. Okay, intensity, hardest working team and then we win. Okay, we get the three points and it's going to feel so good. Okay, >> and Norton gets us underway in the football manager derby here. Ashtag United women versus FC Wimblewood and women. It's crazy situation. There's like four different teams that could still go down today along with Beriki from this league. Two of them are playing right here. And you've also got the likes of Gualia and Chelenham that could go down. Chelenham unlikely to cuz they are playing Beriki a team that haven't got any points this season. So assuming they get a win there they'll be safe and it will then be a free horse race between these two teams and Gualia.
Gualia play Exat today. If Exat were to win that game, we would actually be safe even if we lose.
>> Oh mistake from the keeper here. Kite has shanked that one and on and will get there. She's got S WS behind her on loan from West Ham. She's going to go back to the skipper Jackson. Jackson. He's going to look for Sway. He's not the best target for that sort of cross. I wouldn't suggest, but we're back on the ball, which is strong. Although, speaking of strong, Ashley Hinks is a physical specimen. And she's got a hell of a shot on her. But Malvveni just enough to keep the ball. Liv Smith sends it forward. Touch from Walsh is inside.
Will she get there? No. It's a little bit messy though defensively from the Wles right now.
Can we get off there? Another mistake here. We're pouncing on this with Macy Nicholls. Love to have a good performance from her today on her day.
Unplayable, of course. Flo Jackson goes back to Frankie Angel.
That's Frankie Angel. Sends it long towards Norton. I think got the last touch on that. Buckingham playing it to the other Buckingham. Now it's H. You do not want to let her shoot. That's not a bad ball here.
Problem. Great save. Frankie Angel doing what she's done in her three seasons with the Tags, invariably saving them.
And she does it again. That's a massive moment in the game. Sways, meanwhile, looking for Norton, who's not slow, gets the shot off across the goal.
Walsh was almost there for the tapping, but it was a shot from our top goal scorer.
ball in. This is where they could be dangerous. Oh, Frankie comes and punched and I think punches our own captain Flo Jackson in the back of the noggin in there. I think Exat have just scored.
>> Exit winning. Extra scored. Extra scored. Extra scored. So, as things stand, we're doubly safe. We can't finish any higher than eighth, but we are in eighth as things stand. And eighth would be a great achievement actually if you think about, you know, the start we had to the season. And actually, look at the points if we did were to win today. We'd only be a couple points behind Exit who started the season by beating us 6-nil. You know, it could have easily been six for fifth this year as Norton chases this one down. But we've still got to do our job.
Let's not get carried away. Football is a cruel mistress. That's a bad back pass though. Samways are hunting it down. Oh, and it's deflected to Norton. She needs runners. Walsh has stayed deep. I think she could have made the forward run there. S to open up some space for the striker.
>> Here comes to one of the Buckinghams.
And here's the other one, I think. No, that's not Buckingham. Oh, it's a late one from Mulvaney.
>> Didn't touch her. Come on. Hang on. Hang on. Set. And >> we can turn away with it here. And that will be a foul. Bit of frustration there from the Wimbledon player. Herd on loan from Arsenal.
Looks for Sams. The part the clearance isn't convincing. Nicholls gets it to Johnson. Sams looking for Renee into the box now. Puts it across. It's a good hit. I think it was a shot. And it's not something you'd expect from Renee as a center back that was turned into a center mid. But she's got a bit going forward when she gets going. She's an absolute problem.
>> Throw in for the captain.
into Sways.
She tries to get over. That's Emma's normal position, but Renee could pick it up here. Gets the shot off Norton Walsh.
Oh, >> it's gone in. And it's not the prettiest of goals, but a massive goal. And you got to say once again, I'm going to shout out Renee Johnson in the build up there. Wes, >> who was bouncing around and has it gone in off their player at the end? It's an own goal. It's Sariah Walsh gets it across on the left foot, but it's just been diverted past the keeper.
>> An unfortunate one for Wimbledon and such an important one for them as well.
As things stand, this would see them relegated. I believe that they were staying up before that goal went in because Gualia are losing. But I think this means as things stand, Wimbledon will go down. But it's a great goal for the tags cuz we only need a draw today.
>> Do what I mean.
Get in.
>> Guys, who scored?
>> Who scored?
>> Who scored, Dom?
>> No one.
>> I don't know.
>> Throwing the box. Flicked on. Let's not concede now. Whatever we do, Saskia does well to get up against Hinks and then Johnson comes through now. Walsh, can she get it past the play? That'll do. I don't mind that there to be honest. Bit of a late one on her. And she's gone down holding her ankle. She looks in some discomfort here. Oh, I think this could be a bad one, you know. Oh dear.
>> Hey, Tags, come in. Tags, come in.
OUTSTANDING START. EXCELLENT. THEY CANNOT HANDLE THE PRESSURE. YOU'VE GOT TO PUT THEM UNDER PRESSURE CONSTANTLY.
>> Got Angela coming on for Sia here. So she is hurt.
>> Listen, it's it's a short cameo of half an hour, but a very important one from S there contributing towards the goal.
>> And it's a chance here for Dory.
Gets it over to Buckingham. Oh, through the legs of Jackson. Dory then puts the cross in low, calls for a hand ball. It would have been very harsh, I think, but we have got away with it whether it's the right decision or not.
sent in towards the box. Could go all the way through. No, no, no. That needed a call from Frankie Angel. I think she could have just collected that. But it's an own goal for each team now. That's led us to a one- all deadlock. Look, looking at this back here. Got to have information from Frankie Angel for Flo to leave that. I think there's no Wimbledon player around her. I completely understand why Flo has tried to head that cuz unless you've got a clear bit of info, you'll always try and get ahead on that as a defender. It's a big goal for Wimbledon. They would be going down though as things stand because Gualia got that equalizer against Exat.
Assuming Chelenham was still winning against Beriki. We need to do our own job here though. Got to get control of this game.
Go on Nicki. Oh, it's such a big decision. Maybe the right one. It's a bit of a barge from honor and I think that's at least the third free kick she's given away now. I'll be surprised if the ref lets her get away with many more. But if he had have let that play, that was oneonone.com.
Emma, that's a lovely little run though.
Can she find Jackson would do? She's still going here. This is vintage Sams.
Nicholls, you got to bust the gut to get up there now. Here's Angela with Norton and Renee in the box.
If she I think she's had a shot in the end. Was a bit careless. Great work from Sways. And that's the halftime whistle.
It is one all at the break. As things stand, we are safe, but there is not a lot in it. Another goal would be much appreciated in the second half.
>> We've been dominant throughout. So good.
So good. Keep that going. The work rate has been outstanding. Right. Keep it going. By far the better team out there.
>> What we need to do is I think I just heard it in there. Particularly around the second balls. If we're not winning the first one, firstly you have to compete for everything. We're not winning the first one. We've got to position ourselves to be able to get the second cuz all they're doing is just knocking it back in the air again into an area. We need to win that second ball. Can I just say though, the way that we sustained the attack and we were relentless. That's how we got our goal.
We kept it high up the pitch. You were super aggressive. Managed to keep it high the pitch as well for us. That's brilliant. The energy from the bench has been outstanding. Maintain our energy levels on the pitch now. Big 45. But very proud of that performance so far.
If we maintain that level, brilliant.
Because they're gonna have to force things. They have they have to win this game. They're going to have to maybe commit more bodies up. We could The game will get stretched. That's when we're at our best. Punish them early again. First 10 minutes, that's what matters. Now >> on three. 1 2 3.
>> HERE WE go then. Wimbledon, get us underway for one of the biggest 45 minutes in #Women's history, fighting for our lives. And as things stand, we will remain a tier three side. But if Wimbledon score, all bets are off. Here we go then.
Nicholls with the corner again. Liv Smith again underneath it. Sam Wes will pick this one up. She's got Jackson out wide who she finds. Gets it back. Emma goes in early towards Renee. Chests it down. Herd is going to pick it up.
Lovely little pass to Nicholls who's in the box.
Can she cause a problem here for the Wimbledon defender. Oh, the left foot cross comes in all the way to Herd.
Norton Herd AL to Emma. Oh, a bit of a barge in the back there. I don't like it.
HS with a big switch. Jackson needs to deal with it. She does twice.
Mulvaney to Johnson. Jackson is down.
Johnson. Lovely pass to Sam Waves. Come on then. Nicholls is going to make a forward run. Open up the space for Emma.
Emma's going to have a little run inside here. Oh, it's a lovely ball. Oh, I don't think Norton was expecting it. It was so nice.
>> Oh yes, good from Liv Nicholls.
Ball forward for Sam. Is this on side?
You can see there. Look, Sams two in the box.
Angela. Oh, what a tackle. What a tackle. And it's going to be cleared as well. No tags player underneath it. Good turn there from the Wimbledon number 15.
He's got some fast feet and finds Dory who goes to Russell. Good forward run from right back. They're in the box. Great challenge from Saskia.
Superb from our Arsenal only.
>> Jackson needs to just get a call there.
She did with it >> and now it could come in again from Wimbledon.
Cross is decent. Angel's there. They've had a lot of crosses today from the right side. Every single one has gone into Jack into Angel's hands so far. We can't keep expecting that to happen. And Sandway looks to get us forward. There's got to be a yellow card. Right. Good delivery. This is exactly where their free kick was from that they ended up scoring from with the own goal.
Angel stick it in the mixer towards Renee. Oh, it's Oh my god. It's an absolute carbon copy. I just said it's from the same zone and the exact same thing has happened. Have you ever seen it before in your life? A relegation decider and there's been three own goals.
Two from Wimbledon, one from us. Neither team have actually scored a goal and two of them were identical, but I love it cuz that is a great goal for the Tags.
>> Come on. Who wants Simon? YES.
I CAN'T JUMP.
>> Oh my god.
So good. Sams Macy can nick this. It's good defending from Dory. Actually Jackson to Horwood Smith.
Nice pass to Nicholls.
Nice pass again to Arie. Can she isolate a defender here? Oh, she has a go. Oh my word. It's actually potentially going to go off for a throw in. But it was a good strike, man. It just needed a little bit more juice on it. But that's the sort of thing she does. She's a very very exciting attacking player to watch.
Al Angela. Nice. Oh, difficult one for Arie to control, but she won't give up on it.
There's a big touch there from Russell.
Too much. And then Johnson's going to come and claim it. What can she do here?
Trying to get in that central position.
Still holds on to it though under pressure from Dory. Gets it over to her fellow dual reg from Charlton. Left footed cross from Angela Sams. Can she get it under Nicholls? Well blocked. You got to say it's a good block from Wimbledon there. There it is. It's not bad at all. Renee. Oh, pushed onto the bar. Saskia.
How's that not gone in? Renee with the effort pushed onto the bar by Kite in goal. And that would have been probably our safety secured there.
Oh, >> it stayed on. It stayed on.
still on.
>> What way you flagging? You can't flag the other way. How can it not be ours?
>> It doesn't make any sense that sent long by Angelan.
Wow. Nicholls gets it to Hussein Sams.
Nicholls should claim that. Oh no. Well done by Buckingham. Plays the ball.
Bonnie Hall snuffs it out, but Hinks is here. Play keeper on the left. She can hit it off both feet though. That's clearly evidence there. A decent effort.
>> Are you aware of how badly you handled the ball in the box?
>> I didn't.
>> It looked like >> Why do you think my hair came out?
>> No. No. It looked like you literally went like this and it hit your head.
>> No, no, no. It hit of my hair, which is why my hair tie fell out. So I could literally prove it cuz my hair tie was like down here.
>> You know, from where I was standing up there, it genuinely looked like it was coming from the wall and it was coming towards me and I tried to head it and I just it was spinning.
>> So we had a little vote on the bench and like I honestly from this angle it looked like you literally put your hand was like who >> forward towards Harry Macy Ruby. Oh, Ruby's pass bit sloppy.
Bonnie Hall's passes are rarely sloppy.
She's expert at finding a teammate.
Ruby.
Oh, not the worst idea. I think it might have had too much on it. Angela has got there. Great pace. Could go back to Ruby on the edge. Goes in low towards AR.
It's a big big interception though. Just checking his exit score. But it looks like it's still one over there which would see Gualia survive and Wimbledon relegated all the way across to Angela.
She just shanks that but Emma might pick it up. Lovely cushion pass to Macy if she can keep it on. She does.
Looks for that ball for Ari. It's a good pass. AR's got no one with her right now. Holds it up. Can she find Emma or go alone on the left foot?
Not her best strike, but great striker play to create the chance there. Good from Emma and Macy in the buildup.
>> Flicked on here to Hinks. Oh, this could be a problem. She's going to get through. She's very good in these areas, Hinks. She tries to come back onto the right foot. And that is why she wanted to cuz she's as as an accomplished finisher as you'll find at any level.
And she's put that where Frankie could not save it. And it's 2-2 just like that ball over the top. Composure in the box from the veteran striker. a hinks and it's 22. Wimbledon need another, but they've put us in the squeakiest of bum times. Now, Nexus are still drawing with Gualia. So, as things stand, Wimbledon will go down, but we're one goal away from relegation here. If we concede another, it's us facing the drop. Herd gets up and they're leaving a few more bodies forward now. Wimbledon, there will be gaps at either end.
Saskia twice wins the tackle. This has to be dealt with. Bonnie heads it.
Ruby's got to win that Gateely there.
Worked forward. Jackson doesn't make it.
Big chance again. Huge save from Frankie Angel. That would have been a nightmare.
Bonnie's overcooked it. Still alive here for Wimbledon. Cross comes in back post and off the pitch. Oh my gosh. This is not looking good, lads and ladies.
Angel got to get players around Arie because she is causing them problems, but she's very isolated when she gets up there. Angela's trying to do that. She might make this. Go on, Angela. Go on, Angela. Oh, I don't mind. That was there to go for, man. That was there to go for when she starts sliding. The keeper's not got the ball. I I hope she's all right, the keeper. And it did look like a painful one.
>> 10 minutes. We can easily control this.
We've done it all game. All game, Arie.
Excellent. Those early shots. Brilliant.
Absolutely brilliant.
>> Do it together. Come on to the end.
>> Bonnie gets up. Oh, you're going to give that. Are you a It's a bit light. And those free kicks have been a problem, man. Let's remember those two own goals that were identical came from free kicks like this into the box. HS dinks it in.
Herd wins it. No shot. Watch that bounce. Let's take it away now. Macy not convinced with the clearance. Could get on this though. And again, ML player.
Good pass, Sams. Run with it. Run with it. Emma, you got time. You got space.
You need options. Al's inside. Plays it to Al. There's one more at the back post. Oh, she got caught in two minds, maybe. But she does find Arie. AR left foot again. Just can't quite wrap her foot around it. She's had a couple of them now. That was a big moment.
Bonnie wins it, but it goes higher than she'd have liked it to. She wins the second one. Potential late one on her.
She going to come away here, though.
Good pass to Sams. Emma, you can skin her or does she go corners? Is it too early for that? I don't know if it is.
Good feet from Emma. Going to get a corner. Great play from Sergeant Sams.
What a servant. She's been to the club now. She has even more games than her 100 plus games she's got if it wasn't for the ACL injury as well. Now, what do we do? Do we go short here? Doesn't look like we're going to. Looks like we're going to stick it in the mixer, but it is the 89th minute.
>> Nicholls drives it. Arie Ruby. It's not the worst connection from Gateely. Just off target. Peachy on the throw in here for Wimbledon.
Far too easy given to her teammate who beats Sam's Taylor Brown here. Tricky feet. That's not a bad pass.
It's great defending from Saskia Herd who's just been solid today.
sent forward by Angel headed against the Wimbledon player. Got to make good decisions here for the rest of this game. Lovely connection from Herd on the left foot there. That's a mistake. Arie gets the header up.
Angela, can she run through with it here? She got the pace to get past the player. It's a good recovery in the end.
You have to say there.
Macy's going to hit it in. It's going to go all the way through now. Angela, can you keep it? No, we've lost the ball.
Yes. 2-1 exit. Massive goal for the tags that both teams are safe on this pitch right now. Good decisions now. It's definitely corners if we get the ball.
Arie trying to spin her player. Can you get a corner now? Please do not whip this in.
>> M. Mace, pull pull Arie in with you.
Just play it short in there.
>> There you go. Ari's going to go and get it. Yeah. And just just do it in the corners here and then find Emma >> Macy. That'll do. Throw him for the tags. No rush. No rush.
Smith to herd.
>> Yeah. Get on side, everyone. Get on side. AR's way off right now. That'll do. Ref. They've got to press you, Frankie. Don't Don't kick it until you need to. They've got to press you.
I don't like how far out of Frankie's goal she is.
Just don't don't keep going forward. Go back. Don't go forward, Frankie. Cuz if you mess this kick up, you're out your goal. Go back.
>> What? I don't know what Wimbledon are doing. Do they know they need a draw?
This is very odd end to the game here.
>> What is the problem? I think are now losing.
>> I think Gualia go down.
>> This is mental, but both teams have essentially realized that they're both safe again. Player again. Good time.
>> It's on goal difference. It's on gold different. What are they doing?
>> What are they doing? What are you going to do?
>> Oh my days. This is >> ref just blow the whistle, mate. You might as well just blow the whistle, ref. There it is. And that's the final whistle. And it's a draw for #g guaranteed safety. And we think safety for Wimbledon as well, which is why we saw that very strange end to the game.
If Brley get an equalizer now, Wimbledon will have a lot of egg on their face.
I've been coaching nearly 20 years and I've never experienced a moment like that at the end. Even I was like, "What the is going on?" That was wild.
But look, at the end of the day, they're they're buzzing. But do you know what? We should be ecstatic.
No, genuinely, I want you to celebrate because that was brilliant. We absolutely fought for each other out there. We're staying in this league at least for another year. Well done.
>> That's what I'm talking about. That's what we need. Right.
>> Catch on three. 1 2 3.
