Birmingham City 0-1 Tottenham Women: Spurs end season on high note Share this story Photo by Tottenham Hotspur FC/Tottenham Hotspur FC via Getty Images It’s difficult to call Tottenham Hotspur Women’s 2020-21 WSL season anything but a disappointment, but they certainly ended their campaign on a high note. Spurs snapped a four match losing streak on Sunday as striker Kit Graham scored the match’s only goal in a 1-0 away win over Birmingham City Women at Damson Park in Solihull. The win was mostly for pride Tottenham were safe from relegation but there was a chance that with a loss they could have finished as low as 11th. The win was just their fifth of the season in eighth place, four points behind Reading. Birmingham, by contrast, finished a miserable campaign without a home win all season, and without any win at all in 2021.
Tottenham FCW vs. Chelsea FCW, WSL: Preview, team news, how to watch Share this story Photo by Kieran Cleeves/PA Images via Getty Images How do you follow up the biggest performance in club history? Perhaps by not letting the WSL title slip through your fingers against a London rival. While Chelsea were busy punching our tickets to Gothenburg on Sunday, Manchester City quietly reclaimed top position in the league table. But with only one league match remaining for City, they need some unexpected assistance from the Blues to maintain that position. Given how ruthless Chelsea have been all season, it’s highly unlikely the Blues will hand Manchester City a lifeline, but you never know. Two victories in our final two matches will see us defend the title and win the league for the second year running.
Reading 0-0 Tottenham Women: Spurs snap losing streak with scoreless draw Share this story Photo by Tom Dulat/Getty Images Tottenham Hotspur Women traveled to the Madejski Stadium to face Reading Women in a match that was postponed from earlier in the season. Spurs were hoping to snap a four match losing streak. And that’s exactly what they did, though not in the way they wanted. Despite a ton of counters and a flurry of late chances, Spurs couldn’t find a way past Reading’s keeper. But then again, Reading couldn’t score either. The final score was a fairly entertaining 0-0 draw.
Tottenham Women 2-3 Everton: Spurs undone by two early penalties in loss to Toffees Share this story Photo by Catherine Ivill/Getty Images The sun shone on a lovely day in London as Tottenham Hotspur Women hosted Everton Women at The Hive in Edgware. The match didn’t turn out to be as positive as the weather for Tottenham, however. Tottenham were victims of two harsh penalty calls by the match official, but roared back to level the score from a 2-0 deficit. Unfortunately, they couldn’t keep Everton out and ultimately fell to the Toffees, 3-2. The biggest change to Tottenham’s last lineup was a debut for 18-year old Spurs defender Esther Morgan, who came into the team at right back for the injured Ashleigh Neville at the expense of striker Rianna Dean. Rosella Ayane also came in, and Gemma Davison was a last-minute change for Cho So-hyun. Rachel Williams, Hannah Godfrey, Ashleigh Neville, and first choice keeper Becky Spencer all missed the match with injury.

The Hoddle of Coffee: Tottenham Hotspur news and links for Tuesday, February 16 Share this story Hello, all! Ramble of the Day I didn’t intend for the Hoddle to become a destination to discover every footballer who has been on any country’s version of Masked Singer, but what can I do? I’ve already started, so I might as well make it a thing. I’ll do more research on a different day, but in the meantime, I’ve got two entries from the most recent season in France. Here’s the first, and I’ll give you a couple of clues: he played from 1998 to 2019, was capped 41 times by France, and played for two Premier League clubs.
