Taylor hails ‘ambassador’ Houghton Share Gareth Taylor hailed Steph Houghton as ‘an ambassador’ for Club and country, after the City and England skipper set yet another FA Women’s Super League record. The 32-year-old, who became the first player to win 100 league games back in September, wrote her name into the history books once again in Sunday’s 7-1 thrashing of Brighton and Hove Albion, becoming the first player to tally 150 appearances in the competition. Fittingly. The captain marked the occasion (which felt on the day of City’s seven-year anniversary) with two goals; the second a sensational free-kick – her specialty.
