Suzanne Wrack spoke to Arsenal’s Alessia Russo.
“When you get to where we are, there is so much that comes with it, pressures and highs and lows. Doing something like this is a real switch-off from that and it’s something we’re all passionate about as players. We all know the growth of the game is happening really fast, but we also know where we all started. That’s what’s really unique about the women’s game, because we’re all looking at what we can do to leave it in an even better place.”

Preamble
Welcome to coverage of the north London derby, with the action taking place out east at Brisbane Road, home of Leyton Orient. It’s a battle of fourth v fifth, the European champions needing an away win to stay in touch with the top three. They face a much improved Tottenham team, lifted by Martin Ho’s arrival as coach. Spurs can leapfrog their rivals if they win.
Kick-off is at 2.30pm UK time. Join me.
