Bartrip on being back at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for Everton clash

“I love playing at the Stadium,” Molly said, looking ahead to next Sunday’s clash against the Toffees. “It’s amazing [to play there] and hopefully we can get as many fans there as possible.

“It always helps us when we’re playing there to hear the crowd, cheering us on, so hopefully we can put in a positive performance but we’re looking forward to being back there, we love playing there.

“The last two games were big results for us. Obviously, a lot of goals in the Villa game, disappointing to concede as many as we did, but going into the FA Cup tie, we knew it would be tough, they are a great team, but it’s a 90 plus game nowadays and we fought till the very end.

“We got through extra-time and penalties, so credit to all the girls who stood up to take the penalty. It was amazing to get through, and you could see how much it meant, not just to us but also the fans.”

Our number five has been one of a very small group to stay behind in north London over the international break, but she insists the squad is ready to go once our internationals return next week for a full week of preparation ahead of Everton.

“We’ve been working really hard,” she added. “Sometimes the good thing during the international break is that you get a lot of one-on-one coaching and more details delivered to you, so that has been beneficial for all of us."
