Conceding inside 30 seconds against Crystal Palace was "not fun", but Sorensen praised the "great character" from his side to fight back. After Honoka Hayashi scored Everton's first goal by one of their own players, he said: "The amount of grass she is covering in the pitch is unreal. She is such a composed player. We are trying to get her into more of these opportunities." He added: "She is such a lovely player to work with, so humble, always has a smile on her face and is never in a bad mood. She is a fantastic person but an even better football player." On Liverpool, he said: "We are not far from each other on Sunday when it really matters out there, but they probably have a bit more depth. We have to be very solid for 90 minutes".
