Hanna Lundkvist scored her first goal for Manchester United. But teammate Julia Zigiotti Olme was responsible for the most beautiful goal in the 4-1 victory over Aston Villa.

The Swedish national team midfielder laid the ball down at the corner flag in the 35th minute. But instead of the usual approach of serving her teammates with a pass, the 28-year-old screwed the ball straight into the goal.

That meant 1–0 away against Aston Villa in a match that Manchester United ultimately won 4–1.

The final goal was scored by another blue-yellow national team player. Hanna Lundkvist, signed at the turn of the year, was substituted in the 61st minute and scored to make it 4–1 - her first goal for United - in the 79th minute.

Ellen Wangerheim and Anna Sandberg also started for the away team. Fridolina Rolfö missed the match through injury.
