Hosts Steph Houghton and Ian Wright go back to the basics with Arsenal’s loss to Real Madrid, sharing their disappointment at the team's inability to adapt as the game went on. And, of course, that pitch. They also look at a revitalized Man City, whose victory over Chelsea in the first leg of UEFA Women’s Champions League quarterfinals marked Chelsea's first loss this season—is this a sign of things to come or just new-manager bounce? The hosts heap praise on Kerolin for her energy and directness, and on Vivianne Miedema for her supreme finishes. Then it's time to weigh up Crystal Palace, Aston Villa, and Leicester’s survival in the WSL, before attempting to predict the unpredictable for this weekend’s WSL fixtures. Episode 22.
