West Ham manager Paul Konchesky said his side will not allow their 3-1 loss to Arsenal earlier in the Women's Super League season to sit on their minds as they welcome the title challengers to the Chigwell Construction Stadium on Sunday evening.
Then, Konchesky’s side fired themselves ahead through Dagný Brynjarsdóttir shortly after the half-hour mark, but the Gunners retaliated through Jordan Nobbs seven minutes later, before Stina Blackstenius and Frida Maanum put the game beyond the Hammers. Jonas Eidevall’s side boasted 78% possession on the day and registered 19 shots at Sophie Hillyerd in goal.
Konchesky pointed to the progress made within his side since incurring the defeat, as well as the solid run of form West Ham currently enjoys as they head into Sunday after successive wins in the FA WSL Cup and FA Cup.
