Newcastle United women’s team coach Becky Langley is looking forward to it…

“I don’t buy that it’s just another game.

“Sunderland’s a special match.

“Incredibly important for our region, where you need incredible focus.

“There is always that extra bite in a derby and the girls are saying they don’t want to get beat by the Mackems.

“We have got to be bold.

“We can’t be vanilla.

“Our fans are really loud and travel in such numbers.

“At away games last season they outnumbered the home supporters.

“When we went to London City Lionesses at the start of this season the whole stadium was black and white.

“We all know a north-east team needs to be in the Women’s Super League.
