"We stand on the shoulders of giants. To come to this inaugural competition and win it and do it with all of our fans here in style - our fans are wonderful and that's who we do it for."
Sitting 13 points off leaders Manchester City in the WSL, the Gunners will turn their focus to defending their Champions League title when they face OH-Leuven in the last 16 later this month while they are also alive in the FA Cup.

"It's football in all its ways today," Slegers said. "There was good football, duelling and momentum shifts. I'm proud of the team in the rain - we got over the line and found a way to win this game."
