Julia Zigiotti Olme's sixth-minute goal settles Manchester United's 250th game

The 1-0 win over Liverpool became the WSL channel's fastest new highlights video in weeks, and its comment section is busy with goalkeepers.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 49,927 views a day, 21 times a normal first day on this channel (2,424).

What does a club do with its 250th match? Manchester United's answer was to get the job done early. Julia Zigiotti Olme scored in the sixth minute against Liverpool, and that was the whole scoreline: a 1-0 win the league's own channel titled "Victory In 250th Game!"

The highlights passed 35,000 views in their first thirteen hours. A new video here usually ends its first day at around 2,400, so this one ran roughly twenty times ahead. It also left the rest of the channel's busy week behind: Goal and Save of the Month nominees, a Subway Players Cup round-up, and a Crystal Palace short whose punchline is about a black-and-white picture.

The comments are a goalkeeping debate. Several viewers single out United's keeper, Phallon Tullis-Joyce, as their player of the match. Others say the goal began with a Liverpool mistake while playing out from the back. Elisabeth Terland splits opinion too. Some credit her pressing with the goal, and others think she should have squared a ball late on.

A handful of the comments are written in Japanese, from viewers who follow the Japanese players on both teams. One of them congratulates a player on her debut. Liverpool fans, meanwhile, keep asking the same question: where was Vivien Endemann?
