InterviewMissy Bo Kearns: We want a win and a performance at Leicester

The Reds visit King Power Stadium on Saturday lunchtime for the first of three Barclays Women’s Super League matches in the space of eight days, with a trip to Chelsea Women and home clash with Manchester City Women to follow.

Matt Beard’s side are unbeaten in their last four matches and came from behind to defeat Brighton & Hove Albion Women 2-1 last time out.

And Kearns, who was named Standard Chartered Player of the Month for March earlier this week, told Liverpoolfc.com: “We’ve got a busy week next week, we’ve got three games, so the best way to start it is with three points and a good performance.

“So that’s what our focus will be in training, it’s onto Leicester and how we beat them. Then hopefully that’s the case before we go into Chelsea and City.”

Ceri Holland struck twice to earn a vital three points against Brighton and Kearns was delighted with the character shown to recover from a one-goal deficit at half-time.

She continued: “I think there was a lot of pressure on the game. If we didn’t win then Brighton were then chasing us and they’re in good form and we knew that. We knew it wasn’t going to be easy, they had a new manager and they’ve been very organised since the new manager has come in.

“I think our performance at the weekend was brilliant and we showed our resilience and how to come back from 1-0 down to get the win.

“I think as a team we’re so together. We always believe we are going to get a chance and I think now it’s starting to come together where we always think we’re going to score, so that’s the confidence.”
