Jelena Cankovic hopes Albion can repeat last season's win over Arsenal when the teams meet again on Sunday in the WSL at the Broadfield Stadium.

Cankovic was among the scorers in that 4-2 victory which helped Albion make history as we claimed our highest WSL finishing position of fifth.

Jelena reflected on her two goals and that huge result at home. “Scoring puts you closer to winning the game so after every goal I was focused on what was important in that moment, which was getting the win over the line," she said.

“Winning is always the best feeling and winning that game was a special moment for the club. It was a crucial result at the end of a historic season in the WSL for us.

"The support that day at Broadfield was also amazing which made it extra special.”

“No matter the opponent, every game is exciting but coming from a tough loss last weekend this is a really good opportunity for us to try and bounce back.

“Playing against a club who have just won the UEFA Women’s Champions League will be a big challenge and they are a great team, but I am really looking forward to it."
