West Ham United Women picked up two points from their opening Continental Tyres League Cup match on Sunday, as they were victorious in a dramatic penalty shootout that saw 26 penalties taken in total!
The Hammers found themselves two goals behind in the game after London City had scored in the first half through Lois Heuchan, and then in the second half from Sarah Ewens.
Viviane Asseyi scored her first goal in Claret & Blue, which seemed to reinvigorate her side – and Dagny Brynjarsdottir would head home an equaliser moments before the final whistle sounded, which would take the game to penalties.
In a quite incredible shootout, it would be Brynjarsdottir that would score the Hammers final penalty, with Lilly Agg blazing her follow-up over the bar to give West Ham the extra point and finish the shootout with the score at 10-9 in favour of the east London side.
