Glasgow City Trio Selected for SWPL Team of the Week

Chloe Logan (Partick Thistle): Logan executed crucial saves during the first half, preceding Hibs’ initial goal. However, the Partick Thistle goalkeeper delivered a pivotal save in injury time, contributing to Thistle securing a favorable draw against a strong Hibs team. Emma Lawton (Celtic): Lawton scored with a courageous header during the victory against Montrose. Despite not being the anticipated player to reach the ball, her determination prevailed. She consistently performs a vital attacking role for Celtic and could have potentially registered three assists on a different occasion. Kimberley Smit (Glasgow City): Smit contributed to the league leaders maintaining a clean sheet during their decisive win over Spartans. She demonstrated exceptional composure and control with the ball, consistently aiming to initiate play from the defensive line. Lizzie Waldie (Hearts): Waldie provided a steadfast defensive presence for Hearts as Aberdeen intensified their pressure late in the game. She executed an outstanding goalline clearance and posed a significant offensive threat during set-piece situations. Lisa Forrest (Glasgow City): Forrest played a substantial role in another significant victory for Glasgow City, contributing one goal and two assists. It was a productive performance for a player who is continually progressing while representing Glasgow City. Katie Lockwood (Glasgow City): Lockwood’s tenure with Glasgow City began somewhat gradually, but she appears to be establishing herself. The midfielder’s opening goal established the momentum for a decisive win, and she also provided an assist for another goal. Cara Henderson (Partick Thistle): Henderson is an indispensable player for Partick Thistle. Her remarkable goal early in the second half secured a crucial away point for Brian Graham’s team. Georgia Timms (Hearts): Timms returned to the Hearts lineup and was central to many of the team’s positive aspects. She displayed dynamism and scored the second goal, which eased the pressure against Aberdeen. Louisa Boyes (Motherwell): Boyes achieved her second hat-trick of the current season, which contributed to Motherwell’s notable victory against Queen’s Park in the contest for sixth place. Jane Ross (Rangers): Ross was optimally positioned for her initial goal, equalizing the score after Dundee United had unexpectedly taken the lead. The forward’s subsequent goal was an exceptional shot from 25 yards. Her two goals within an 11-minute span significantly altered the course of the match. Saoirse Noonan (Celtic): The Irish forward’s goal not only resolved the stalemate against Montrose but also ignited a crucial resurgence for Celtic. Two additional goals completed Noonan’s hat-trick, culminating in a decisive victory. Sandi Toksvig is accompanied by Gyles Brandreth, Lulu, Emmanuel Sonubi, and Alan Davies.
