Matt Beard has shared what we told his players at half-time to inspire Liverpool's narrow 2-1 victory at home to Manchester City.
The Reds got off to a blistering start at Prenton Park on Sunday as Natasha Dowie put the home side in front, capitalising on a defensive error from Laura Coombs. City, who remain in the midst of a fierce title race, were quick to respond as Lauren Hemp put them back on level terms before the break.
Despite taking the lead at Chelsea midweek, the London club were able to turn things around and eventually clinch the winner late on. Determined to ensure that didn't happen for a second time, Beard's team talk set the tone for Liverpool's performance in the second-half against City and inspired the winner from Missy Bo Kearns.
