Liverpool Ladies defender Lucy Bronze 'cannot wait' for the Reds first ever game in the Uefa Women's Champions League but is fully aware of the tough test awaiting the reigning WSL champions.

After yesterday’s 3-3 draw at Arsenal Ladies, the Reds attention now turns to Europe’s elite competition as Matt Beard’s side enter the competition for the first time in the Club’s history.

The England defender said; “Personally, I cannot wait for the game as it is fantastic to be able to test yourself against the best players in Europe. “A few players, myself included, have been involved in the competition previously but for the Club it’s the first time ever so it promises to be a massive occasion. The fact that both the men and women will be in the Uefa Champions League at the same time is brilliant and you can feel a real buzz amongst everyone at the Club.”

Despite Bronze’s enthusiasm towards the game, the Reds no.6 insists Linkopings will provide Beard’s side with a stern test adding; “Having watched a couple of their matches I know that they are a very talented team without having that one stand out player.

“They remind me of ourselves really, as they are always there or thereabouts in the league pushing for top spot. We are under no illusions as to how difficult a game it will be so we will have to perform if we are to get a positive result going in to the second leg.

“Wednesday will be a great night for Liverpool Ladies and competing in the Uefa Women’s Champions League will highlight just how far we have come in such a short space of time."
