Read everything the Hearts Women's head coach said below:
What were your reflections on the game?
Well, I think it was not our day. We commit mistakes that other days we don't commit, simple mistakes. We had more possession, more passes, but they had more chances probably. If you want to win the game, it cannot happen that you just shoot on target one or two times. You need more than that. But I don't know. I don't know what happened. I felt the team was nervous because we were not on the ball as normally we are.
In the build-up to the game, you spoke about the mentality and playing in front of the Tynecastle Park crowd. Did that impact the performance?
The team don't normally make those simple mistakes. I imagine that is that pressure. We try to keep everything normal, like each other games, relax and can play as they know. But I felt that we started nervously and that affected the following minutes.
Do you think the difference between playing Oriam and playing at Tynecastle in terms of the surroundings, the pitch makes a difference?
It makes the difference because unfortunately we don't play in Tynecastle, just one time per year. That means we are not used to playing here. We are used to playing at Oriam where we feel confidence. But our players should be mentally strong to play everywhere. I feel like the pressure to play here, I feel that is there.
Why do you think that you weren't able to create those chances in attack and get Bayley Hutchison involved around the box as much as you would like?
Yeah, I think that we had a lot of distance between lines, that was difficult to link the play and do those connections in attack that we normally do because we were so far from each other. It's something that we have to analyse and improve. Of course, this league is so long and today we lost but probably we will win a match that we didn't expect and that keep us fighting still.
It's only five points between five teams. Does that just show how competitive it is going to be for the rest of the season?
Yeah, and everything can happen between those five teams. The key is to get as much as possible in those direct duels. We won the first match, now they won. Of course, the following matches are key. But this league is so long and in the split, we play again two times against everyone in the top six and that can change. Everything can change.
