Historic Hearts trio feature in SWPL TOTW

[BBC]

Rachael Johnstone (Hearts): Made some important saves in what was a huge win for Hearts. But for her foot saving effort Celtic would have been in for an equaliser.

Kimberley Smit (Glasgow City): Was on hand to make some crucial interceptions and blocks when Rangers were piling on the pressure. Like her goalie, was key in the match ending in a draw.

Erin Husband (Hearts): Composed at the back. Showed her physicality too as she blocked and intercepted Celtic's attack.

Lisa Robertson (Hearts): Put in quite the shift as Celtic piled on the pressure. She had to do her fair share of defending, and with the ball she was intent on trying to move Hearts forward.

Darcie Miller (Aberdeen): Was lively all afternoon, making a real nuisance of herself. Was unfortunate not to find herself on the scoresheet.

Louisa Boyes (Motherwell): Showed great persistence in forcing the ball over the line to get Motherwell back in front.

Rio Hardy (Rangers): Made an immediate impact when she came on as a sub, providing a spark and threat that had been missing in the first half. Her goal could prove a significant one in this title race.

Neve Guthrie (Montrose): Scored a cracker of a goal from about 25 yards. Her touch and finish was sublime. Although Thistle equalised, a point for Montrose will be welcomed.

Laura Berry (Motherwell): Lead the way for Motherwell with her two goals, proving key again in a win which moved her side up into the top six.

Hannah Stewart (Aberdeen): Great goal to get Aberdeen off the mark and earn only their second win of the league season. Did so well in the build up to, and execution of, her strike.

Eilidh Adams (Hibs): Her early goal really settled Hibs, setting the tone for a comfortable win. She also kept her cool to slot away two penalties sealing her hattrick, and set up a goal. A good afternoon's work.
