NewsLeanne Kiernan explains how LFC Women 'got the result we wanted' at West Ham

The Republic of Ireland international netted the Reds' second goal of the fourth-round tie at Chigwell Construction Stadium and was later joined on the scoresheet by Grace Fisk, Lucy Parry and Sam Kerr.

An own goal after three minutes kick-started a satisfying night for the visitors, who will now travel to Rugby Borough in round five on Sunday February 9.

Kiernan told Liverpoolfc.com post-match: "It's nice to get on the scoresheet but [it was] a great win, onto the next round of the FA Cup.

"But I just feel like it's been a great week in training, I feel like the girls have been in good form, we had great craic on the bus coming down and it's been a really nice day.

"I feel like we came into the game very chilled and prepared. We got the result we wanted."

Kiernan's goal arrived in the 18th minute and saw her round the goalkeeper to add the finishing touch to a brilliant counter-attack, which was started by Olivia Smith.

"Liv has been brilliant this season and she's a pleasure to work with," the No.9 said. "She has that strength to hold up the ball which means that I can kind of free run through and she can lay it off, which is brilliant. I feel like it worked out really well together."

Matt Beard's side now turn their focus back to Barclays Women's Super League matters.

They meet West Ham again but will face them at St Helens Stadium on Sunday in a 2pm GMT kick-off.

Kiernan finished: "Looking forward to that game and I have a few friends coming over in the crowd, so a few Irish chants will be going on! I'm looking forward to it."
