'As soon as it leaves her foot you know it's in' - Jess Park shines again | OneFootball

Manchester United's first Champions League campaign continues to roll on with Jess Park once again making the headlines in a 5-0 aggregate win over Atlético de Madrid..

The England international joined United last summer in a deal that saw Grace Clinton leave for Manchester City. While Clinton will likely end the season with a WSL medal, it's Park who has become indispensable for her team.

In his post-match press conference after the Atlético game, Marc Skinner was clearly happy with his forward who scored another super strike from outside the area.

"As soon as it leaves her foot you know it's in," the United manager said about another super strike from Park.

A short corner saw the 24-year-old in space on the edge of the box and once again then find the corner of the net in the kind of strike she is now known for and one that was almost a carbon copy of the equaliser against London City Lionesses.

"I think she's incredible. I think she genuinely is an incredible footballer," Skinner went on to say about Park who is having the best season of her career to date.

Park has scored nine and assisted four in 28 games for United, which is her best return to date having 'only' made 12 goal involvements in her last two seasons for Manchester City.

Indeed, that tally of eight now moves her up to United's second top scorer this season, one more than Melvin Malard (eight) but behind striker Elisabeth Terland (14).

But what really sets Park apart from the rest is that rare ability to conjure something out of nothing. Against London City Lionesses, United were under the cosh before their free-roaming attacker picked up the ball near the byline before driving towards goal and firing an unstoppable shot into the goal.

United may be without the injured Ella Toone but as long as they have 'incredible' Park they can continue to fight on four fronts this season.
