The penalty that allowed Arsenal to come from a goal behind to take the lead may have come with a healthy helping of luck, with the ball having come off Ella Morris’s raised arm as her teammate attempted to clear it, but it could prove to be the turning point Arsenal needed.
We haven’t got the results we wanted,” penalty scorer Alessia Russo told the BBC afterwards. “This was an important win as far as north London derbies goes.
It was really important and this was a great opportunity to try and turn it around.” The performance against Tottenham was far from perfect and, in the first half in particular, sloppy and lacking fight.
