"It capped off a positive afternoon for the north London club, who welcomed a record crowd of 6,788 at Brisbane Road as they inflicted further frustration towards Arsenal, taking points off them for just the third time in 12 WSL meetings. "It doesn't make us a great team by just getting a point against Arsenal because you have to consistently deliver that," said Spurs boss Ho."
"Tottenham have enjoyed highs in recent years - making their first Women's FA Cup final in 2024 for example - but have not built on those moments. That historic day at Wembley did not prove to be a catalyst for progress, instead teeing up a disappointing league campaign which ultimately led to former boss Robert Vilahamn's sacking in the summer. Structural changes from the top of the club was needed and the bubblewrap was burst - Tottenham needed to go back to basics."
Tottenham sit level on points with Arsenal after a solid 0-0 draw, recording five wins from nine and the most clean sheets in the Women's Super League this season. A record crowd of 6,788 watched at Brisbane Road as Spurs frustrated Arsenal, taking points from them for only the third time in 12 WSL meetings. Martin Ho emphasised the need for consistency and further progression despite a strong start. Tottenham previously reached their first Women's FA Cup final in 2024 but failed to build, prompting managerial change. New coaching, targeted recruitment, and investments in performance, nutrition and leadership under CEO Vinai Venkatesham have driven on-field improvement.
