Asisat Oshoala scored her first goal in English
football to help defending Women's Super
League One champions Liverpool overcome
Birmingham City.
Nigeria striker Oshoala was lively before
meeting a Gemma Bonner cross to volley home
just before the break.
Oshoala cut the ball back for Fara Williams to
make it 2-0 before Aoife Mannion gave
Birmingham late hope.
Liverpool's first win of 2015 was overshadowed
as Kate Longhurst went off on a stretcher with
concussion.
The forward received lengthy treatment on the
pitch following a clash of heads with Remi
Allen.
Defeat for Birmingham leaves them winless in
the league, although they have already ended
Liverpool's FA Cup hopes with a 3-1 fifth-
round win at Damson Park.
Liverpool striker Asisat Oshoala:
"I feel very happy and excited about the goal
and the victory for the team.
"It's very nice for me hearing them singing my
name. It's a crazy atmosphere. I have never
seen supporters like this and I have been
playing football for quite a long time now. The
supporters here are awesome, they are great
people.
"It's been a difficult start to the season but I
believed we would bounce back. We showed
the spirit here is very high, and we are really
giving everything."
Birmingham City boss David Parker:
"The first goal is always crucial and giving
them the goal at such a crucial time was poor
game management.
"We should never have allowed them that
opportunity. We should have gone into half-
time at 0-0 and taken it from there.
"It's the things we absolutely preach to the
players, and that's what makes it most
frustrating. They are our basics as a football
club, we play in a certain way, and the players
have done the opposite to that at times and
got themselves into trouble as a result."
