Interim coach Nick Cushing emphasized that Manchester City will quickly bounce back from their Champions League exit after losing to Chelsea. Despite recent setbacks, including a League Cup defeat and trailing Chelsea in the Women's Super League, Cushing believes the team has much to play for, such as competing for the remaining Champions League spots. Cushing pointed out the importance of winning the upcoming matches, especially against Brighton, to secure a chance at European qualification. Additionally, he updated on player injuries, mentioning Lauren Hemp's continued absence and Alex Greenwood's proximity to returning to play.
City exited Europe after Chelsea turned around their quarter-final tie with a 3-0 second-leg win at Stamford Bridge to win 3-2 on aggregate.
We have to chase those teams above us for the Champions League places, so it's about focus now.
As the coach, you have to analyse where we can potentially make up that ground. It starts with us having to win.
We know the finish Manchester United have, so there is an opportunity, in my opinion.
