‘We never give up’ – Manchester City boss Jeglertz delighted with late winner against Liverpool Manchester City head coach Andrée Jeglertz was thrilled to see his side score a late goal as they defeated Liverpool 1-0 at The Joie Stadium on Sunday afternoon. Rebecca Knaak’s 91st-minute header was enough to separate the two sides as Manchester City moved to within a win of the Barclays Women’s Super League title. When speaking to the media after the game, Manchester City boss Jeglertz said that he was really pleased with how his side continued to search for the winning goal.
“It was a tough game, but I think that says something about this group that even if there are parts in a game where we struggle a little bit, [we find a way to win],” Jeglertz said. “Liverpool might be difficult for us, but finding a way to win is a thing that we talked about earlier this year. It shows something about the group that no matter what, we never give up and keep going, believe and trust what we’re doing.
We got over the line in the end, so that’s nice. ” Midfielder Laura Coombs announced the news that she will be retiring from football at the end of season and Jeglertz shared his thoughts on the player’s Manchester City legacy. He said “I think first of all, she’s an amazing person, she’s positive which means a lot for the culture in the group.
She makes sure that everybody is seen and heard in the group. That is one thing about culture and about how she is and the other thing, of course, she’s a great player. “You can put her wherever you want on the field, you can play her almost everywhere.
Also, she always has the right attitude to train, do her best in everything she’s doing. “Of course, you will lose that kind of mentality and personality. She affects so many other players by that personality.
