Fran Kirby admitted that her side made too many mistakes in Saturday’s 3-0 loss to Liverpool at the Amex.

The Reds controlled proceedings for much of the match, scoring early in both halves before sealing the three points on the counter towards the end of the game

“I think in the first half we gave away too many technical errors,” Kirby said. “[We] probably didn't hold onto the ball until the latter stages of the second half. Second half we tried to come out a bit more, but obviously mistakes happen and unfortunately it happened tonight.

“We're really disappointed with the score.”

Kirby was restricted to very few chances on a night where Liverpool’s defence came out on top.

Albion return to action on Wednesday in the Subway Players Cup against London City Lionesses, and Kirby states that her focus is on the next run of fixtures.

“Every performance we know is important,” she added.

“We've got some really tough games coming up. London City [Lionesses], obviously they're on a really good run. Everton as well look solid and we know there's no easy games in this league and we've got to dust ourselves off.

“We'll analyse the game and see where we can improve, and go from there.

“We have to take the learnings from tonight and we have to move on and go on to the next one.”
