Julia Zigiotti Olme scores again as Manchester United beat Aston Villa 1-0

National team star Julia Zigiotti Olme has struck again. With her fourth goal of the season, she was the hero for Manchester United in their 1-0 away win over Aston Villa in the Women’s Super League.

According to SVT, 28-year-old Zigiotti Olme has never scored so many goals in a single league season.

The national team midfielder started on the bench against Aston Villa, while teammates Hanna Lundkvist and Anna Sandberg were in the starting lineup. In the second half, Zigiotti Olme came on as a substitute - and with barely 20 minutes left to play, she headed in Lundkvist's cross.

After a sluggish start to the season, with just one point from three games, Manchester United have picked up steam.

The away win against Aston Villa was their fourth win in the last six rounds, and the team is fourth in the table.
