ALEX Scott believes that Arsenal Ladies can still compete for the Women’s Super League title – but accepts it won’t be easy.
After winning 2-0 at Liverpool on Saturday the Gunners are third in the table, five points behind leaders Chelsea.
They only have two games to go, including a tough trip to Sunderland, but Scott is refusing to give up on the title. “We worked hard in training all week so to get the three points against Liverpool was good for us,” the defender told Arsenal.com.
“We felt we were totally in control during that first half and it was all about getting that first goal. We kept pushing and pushing.
“We’re still in contention for the league and even though it’s not in our hands we’re going to keep pushing on.
“There are two games to go and anything can happen in this league.
“Teams have been taking points off each other all season, so we’ll keep doing our job and just hope that someone else can slip up.”
