Skinner delighted subs keep doing the business | Leicester 0 Man Utd Women 2 | 7 Feb 2026
It speaks again to the growing depth in the United squad. January arrival Hanna Lundkvist made her first WSL start in this game, while Lea Schuller led the line from the beginning. Ellen Wangerheim was another to appear off the bench in the second half, as did Fridolina Rolfo, signed last summer.
Julia Zigiotti, who admitted her first-half goal was intended as a cross, started but is again still in her debut season, while Terland is only in her second.
“We signed players to give us depth for variation, for adaptation to games, and those players that came in today, and the players that didn’t come in today will give us that,” Skinner said.
“All in all, I can be really pleased be with the result, because that’s what we’re chasing. I want performances, but we need to be ready with those results and then keep pressure on at the top.”
