Liverpool defender Gilly Flaherty became the Women's Super League's record appearance holder following the Reds' 3-3 draw with Brighton on Sunday.
Flaherty arrived on Merseyside in the summmer after a four-year spell with West Ham, who she captained under Matt Beard. The centre-back started her career at Arsenal and was part of the squad that won a quadruple in the 2006–07 season.
In April 2011, Flaherty wrote her name into the history books when she scored the first goal of the WSL era, netting the winner away to Chelsea in front of more than 2,500 supporters. The 31-year-old made the switch to Emma Hayes' side in 2014, where she picked up a score of silverware, including Chelsea's first major trophy - the Women's FA Cup.
