Women’s Super League: talking points from the weekend’s action

theguardian.com

Manchester United’s Ella Toone was not only wearing red for her club’s 2-1 win over Tottenham; she was also seeing it as she was sent off in the 80th minute.

She attempted to tackle Eveliina Summanen and the Spurs midfielder tangled Toone’s legs in hers, resulting in the United player falling to the ground.

The England international did not take kindly to the challenge and retaliated by pushing Summanen into the turf. The incident brought Toone a red card.

Toone wrote on Twitter: “Pride myself on the passion and love I have when playing for this club. Hold my hands up for my reaction and I’ll learn from it.” Although it did not cost United the win, which put them top, it could cost them in the future with Toone facing a three-match suspension.

Casemiro wins things. Before arriving in Manchester he had claimed five Champions Leagues, three La Liga titles, one Copa América and 15 other trophies for club and country. He’d won 10 of the 12 major finals he’d played. Now he has a Carabao Cup. Manchester United signed a player with an intimate knowledge of that winning feeling. But would any of that experience count in a team that had forgotten what was required to get over the line? Without him they had lost three finals in five years while finishing second in the league on two occasions. How fitting that his headed goal began the win against Newcastle. But beyond this single act, his greatest contribution is the way he has lifted those around him; especially his countryman Fred, who could be the most-improved player in English football. The Erik ten Hag project has claimed its first prize. For Casemiro, it’s just another day as one of life’s winners. Daniel Gallan
