Zigiotti now has three goals in United’s last five matches, having opened her WSL account straight from a corner against Aston Villa a fortnight ago, one week after notching against Burnley in the Adobe Women’s FA Cup.
Remarkably, the Burnley effort was the defence-minded midfielder’s first in 24 appearances for the Reds, and she has now hit a rich vein of attacking form, which has also seen her provide assists in each of our last two games.
“She is [playing with confidence], and we often speak about how important Ziggi is to the defensive part of our game, but when she came to Manchester United, I challenged her to be the aggressor, be better with the ball,” Skinner told MUTV post-match on Saturday.
