READING FC WOMEN’s manager Kelly Chambers admitted that her team produced a ‘massive’ result with their victory over West Ham.

The Royals picked up their third Women’s Super League win of the campaign with goals from Charlie Wellings and Rachel Rowe.

The victory puts them lifts them up to 10th in the table and four points clear of the relegation zone.

“That performance, and the result was absolutely massive for us,” said Chambers.

“I thought the girls were outstanding in the execution of what we had done in training.

“We were excellent and absolutely deserve the three points.

“It could have been quite easy for the girls to drop their heads after conceding and for a few moments after their goal we were asked to be brave and resilient.

“Then to grow back into the game and score the goal we did, and what an unbelievable goal it was.”

As well as managing to score twice, Chambers was praising of her team’s defensive display.

She continued: “As well as our attacking display, you of course have to look at us defensively.

“I thought she (Grace Moloney) was exceptional again. I’m blessed with two fantastic goalkeepers.

“I decided to stick with Grace for her performance last week and she was outstanding from start to finish.

“I said this week this game begins a huge window of opportunity for us to lay down a marker and pick up points and West Ham was all about picking up points.

“Obviously the three points now takes a little bit of pressure off now going into Arsenal, we know it’s going to be a tough game, but the way the girls are performing right now, what they’re delivering, we just need to go out there to keep on performing to these levels and who knows what we can achieve.”
