Brendan's message to title-winning Ladies
Brendan Rodgers delivered a heartfelt message of congratulations to the Liverpool Ladies following their Women's Super League championship triumph on Sunday.
Matt Beard's side saw off closest challengers Bristol Academy to lift the trophy for the very first time, courtesy of a penalty from Louise Fors and a later effort by Katrin Omarsdottir.
The Northern Irishman has taken a keen interest in the Ladies' progress since inviting Beard and co to Melwood in pre-season, and the boss shared his appreciation after guiding the men to victory at Sunderland.
"I'm absolutely delighted for them," Rodgers told Liverpoolfc.com.
"We've been a part of their story from the beginning of the season. I wished them all the best and good luck.
"I'm sure they're going to have a really good night. It's a wonderful achievement; from where they finished last season, to grow and be up near the top all the way through the season.
"To finish a pressure game and win it 2-0 was remarkable. Congratulations to them and hopefully they have a good couple of days."
