Who features in BBC's SWPL team of the week?
[BBC] Alicia Yates (Spartans): Back in goal for Spartans and made some vital saves in the win over Motherwell, including a fabulous tip over at 0-0. Had that strike gone in, it could have been a different game. Faye Bryson (Hibs): Although not overly tested defensively, she was a real threat going forward. Her link-up play and deliveries impressed. Jesi Rossman (Glasgow City): Scored a cracker of a goal to seal a great City comeback for a point against Hearts. Carly Girasoli (Hearts): Was really strong in defence for Hearts, winning the vast majority of her battles. Although City eventually broke Hearts down, Girasoli was solid for her side. Rachel Donaldson (Partick Thistle): Came off the bench as the hour mark approached and her influence and impact were clear. She set up two of Thistle's three goals against Montrose, including the winner. Sienna McGoldrick (Partick Thistle): Netted a four-minute double to seal a brilliant comeback for her side. Trailing 2-1, McGoldrick grabbed the equaliser and then scored a beauty to wrap up the win for Thistle. Kayla Jardine (Hearts): Was so impressive with her pace and press. A constant livewire and on the ball, she always looked to make things happen. Capped off her display with a well-deserved goal. Yuliia Khrystiuk (Hibs): Linked up brilliantly with Lizzy Smith, who just missed out on the team of the week. The Ukraine international set up the opener and her dangerous ball in resulted in the own goal which handed her team a 2-0 win against Aberdeen. Jodi McLeary (Rangers): Played with confidence, which showed in the execution of both her goals in the derby win over Celtic. The 21-year-old is proving to be a significant player for Rangers this season - even more impressive given her lack of pre-season. Calliste Brookshire (Rangers): Her pace is such an asset and the full effect of that was on show as she pounced on a loose pass to set up Rangers' second goal. She was a constant threat running at her opponents, and also got on the scoresheet herself, wrapping up a big win. Izzy Young (Spartans): Key to her team's second win of the season. Good on the counter, setting up a couple of dangerous attacks. Set up the opening goal in a hard-fought victory.
