Irish abroad: Brosnan and McCabe star in Women's Super League

Ireland captain Katie McCabe received a rating of 7.8 as she put in a good performance for Arsenal in their 1-0 derby victory over Tottenham.

Liverpool beat Aston Villa 4-1 and Niamh Fahey (7.1) and Leanne Kiernan (6.8) both put in good performances.

Brosnan's Everton teammate Heather Payne also played well with a rating of 6.9, despite the Everton loss.
