Summary
This weekend saw the returns of the Frauen Bundesliga and the WSL (04:50), so Musa and Ryan round-up some results from both, including Olivia Smith’s brilliant debut goal, Chelsea winning the season’s first blockbuster fixture and late drama in Union’s Bundesliga debut. Meanwhile, London City Lionesses head coach, Jocelyn Prêcheur, was interviewed in-game, adding to a trend of new media features rolled out across the Premier League and WSL this season. So, there’s a discussion about whether so much media access is needed or wanted in certain sports (11:52) and what effect is has on the viewing experience, as well as the players and coaches. Finally, there’s a quick shout for Spain (39:18), who are looking very good in World Cup qualifying.
