Arsenal Eases Past Rangers to Advance in Women's Champions League Qualifying.

Caitlin Foord dazzled with a four-goal performance as Arsenal cruised to a convincing win over Rangers, advancing smoothly from their opening Women's Champions League qualifying match.

Jonas Eidevall's team, in their first competitive match of the season at Meadow Park, faced minimal resistance from the SWPL leaders Rangers. After a disappointing exit from qualifying last season, Arsenal made sure to start strong.

Caitlin Foord opened the scoring with a header from Mariona Caldentey's cross and added another close-range goal after halftime. 

The dominance continued as Alessia Russo struck a third with a precise shot, and Foord completed her hat-trick with a stunning volley.

Arsenal captain Kim Little sealed the win with a late penalty, and Foord wrapped up an exceptional performance with her fourth goal in the final minute.
