Gareth Taylor’s welcomed Hammarby to the Joie Stadium looking to extend our 100% start in the European competition to three straight matches after wins over Barcelona and St Polten.
After a goalless first half against the Swedish outfit, Laura Blindkilde Brown opened the scoring with a smart finish from close ranger after she met Mary Fowler’s drilled cross.
It represented the England youth international’s first on the continent, but the visitors were far from out of the contest and we needed the brilliance of Ayaka Yamashita to keep Hammarby at bay.
But the hosts then sealed a third successive three points in the Champions League when Aoba Fujino headed home from close range – her second goal in three group stage outings.
