Olivia Holdt has scooped back-to-back HSBC Player of the Match awards after her impressive display to help us return to winning ways in the Barclays Women’s Super League with a 2-1 victory over Liverpool.
Having been named your Player of the Match following our win over Birmingham City last time out, ‘Olli’ claimed the majority of your votes once again as we defeated the Reds in the WSL for the first time since 2022.
Making her second consecutive start in all competitions for us, her third in the WSL this term, the Denmark international played a pivotal role in our two goals at Brisbane Road to complete the turnaround against the Reds.
Having fallen behind early on after Beata Olsson netted the away side’s opener, we quickly responded and were back on level terms by the midway point of the first period. Eveliina Summanen played a low corner to Olli inside the box, she advanced to the byline on the right side before clipping her cross over Faye Kirby and Toko Koga was there to turn in her first Spurs goal.
And while she didn’t provide the assist for Bethany England’s strike in the second period, the midfielder kick-started the wonderful move that our captain capped off.
Collecting the ball at the halfway line, Olli played a lovely ball over the top to Amanda Nilden and the defender sent a low ball into the centre of the box where Bethany made no mistake from close range.
A tremendous start to the campaign continues for the 24-year-old, having netted her first brace for the Club in our 3-0 win over Birmingham City prior to the October international break.
