Daly: We can't get carried away

Rachel Daly has urged Aston Villa Women not to get ‘carried away’ after Sunday’s opening day victory over Manchester City.

Daly marked her debut with two goals in a thrilling win at Villa Park, as Villa opened the campaign with three big points.

“We can’t get carried away,” Daly quipped during her post-match interview.

“We didn’t have the strongest pre-season, we knew there was a lot of work that needed to be done, but what you saw was a team with resilience.”

Villa’s resilience was on full display having seen a two-goal lead disappear.

City got themselves back into the game just before half-time, before adding two further goals in quick succession to take the lead.

But Kenza Dali scored from long range to get Villa back on level terms, before Daly tapped in a late winner to seal a perfect welcome back to the UK.

“Some would say a dream debut I suppose!” she beamed.

“Obviously it’s nice to get on the scoresheet, not once but twice, but more importantly three points at Villa Park in front of a great crowd. That’s what it’s all about.”
