IRELAND CAPTAIN KATIE McCabe bounced back from her injury to score a screamer for Arsenal in the Women's Super League this weekend.

Arsenal beat Manchester City 2-1 to keep the pressure on Chelsea and Manchester United in the league. Kadija Shaw gave City the lead very early on, but Arsenal's Frida Maanum leveled the score.

However the highlight of the game belonged to Ireland's McCabe. She rifled a fantastic finish into the top cornerof City's goal late in the game.

Her goal secured all three points for Arsenal.

McCabe's moment came days after she was pictured wearing a protective boot following the midweek 2-0 win over Bayern Munich in the Champions League.

There were fears last week that Ireland's captain would miss the upcoming Ireland v USA double-header this month, but those fears have been alleviated.

The Girls in Green will first be in action on Saturday, April 8th, in Austin, Texas, before facing the same opponent again on Tuesday, April 11th, in St. Louis, Missouri. Both games will be broadcast live on RTÉ2.

The squad met on Sunday, April 2nd, and are expected to fly to the States today.
