Riko Ueki has insisted her West Ham United women’s team have put our recent defeat to Chelsea behind us and are hoping to change our fortunes when Aston Villa visit Chigwell Construction Stadium in the Barclays Women’s Super League on Sunday. Despite a difficult afternoon against the reigning champions last time out, there were positives to take from the Hammers’ showing in east London - particularly in how we continued to battle with a player fewer for 70 minutes. While Eva Nyström, Shelina Zadorsky and Amber Tysiak put their bodies on the line to block shots and goalkeeper Kinga Szemik was on hand to deny the visitors on eight occasions, Ueki, up front alongside Viviane Asseyi and Ffion Morgan, worked tirelessly to harry the Chelsea defenders, hold the ball up and create opportunities for her side. Rehanne Skinner’s team were unfortunate not to score last Sunday, going closest through Wales international Morgan, who saw a one-versus-one effort saved by Hannah Hampton. Speaking after the game, captain Katrina Gorry made clear there is still an abundance of belief in her side, and Ueki echoed the thoughts of her skipper.
