Tottenham Hotspur Women bounced back from a derby loss to Arsenal with a 6-1 win over Bristol City in the Players Cup, with Martin Ho praising the team's intensity and ruthlessness in front of goal. The team attacked from the start, and an early goal allowed them to take control. Ho noted that the squad players stepped up when given the chance to start. The attack proved ruthless, with several players scoring notable goals.

Several players stood out in the match, including Shekiera Martinez, who scored a clinical hat-trick, and Signe Gaupset, who scored a clever lob from distance. Olivia Holdt and Matilda Nilden also scored, with Nilden's being her first goal for Tottenham. Ho believed that Martinez's goals would give her a boost in confidence as she settles into life in north London.

The match also marked the return of Jess Naz, Tottenham's longest-serving player, who had been out for eleven months recovering from a serious knee injury. Ho praised her comeback, noting that she brought the same pace, spirit, and tenacity that made her a fan favourite. Her return lifted the whole squad, and Ho believed she would be like a new player for the team.
