Mary Fowler's late strike helped Manchester City defeat Arsenal 2-1 in the League Cup semi-final, just days after a previous loss in the Super League. Fowler expressed immense pride in her team's performance and the relief of being closer to winning a major trophy with City, emphasizing the significance of overcoming missed opportunities. Coach Gareth Taylor praised her determination and the team's character, noting they controlled the game well despite moments of lost possession. They now prepare to face Chelsea in the final, aiming for the cup on March 15.
It was something to be really proud of. Arsenal always put up a good fight and they played well tonight. I'm super proud of the girls and how we played.
I felt mostly relief, but I was super happy. I've been wanting to win something with the girls for so long, so to be a step closer to doing that is really exciting.
Fowler picked herself up after that miss, and it was great. The players really deserved that after their performance tonight.
If we were going to go into extra time, I really fancied us to get a goal because we were knocking on the door a lot.
