Schumacher Previews Partick Thistle Clash

Hibs Women goalkeeper Noa Schumacher believes that the team is "more together" after a positive run of results as they prepare for Sunday's visit of Partick Thistle.

The shot-stopper secured her 10th clean sheet of the campaign against Glasgow City on Wednesday evening, pulling off a terrific last-gasp save to seal all three points for the Hibees. 

Hibs are now seven matches unbeaten in the ScottishPower Women's Premier League and are looking forward to welcoming the Jags to Meadowbank this weekend, with Schumacher stating our game-by-game approach is paying dividends. 

"I think the mindset going into the split was to be very determined to get back to a good place for us, just a good standard of play. 

"And to focus on the game in front of us mostly, I feel like we've been doing that.

"There are little hiccups here and there, but overall I think we look a lot more together right now."

After previously going winless against Glasgow City in the league since 2007, we are now unbeaten in six SPWPL matches against the Springburn-based outfit since January 2025.

Despite extending the impressive streak further midweek, Schumacher admitted it was not a perfect performance on the night. 

"It was not our best performance.

"But it's just one of those games where you just kind of have to get it done, grind it out, work together and that's kind of just what we did. 

"(Eilidh's goal) was beautiful, from my angle I was like sheesh, that was going in.

"I think right now it's a perfect time; lots of prayers, lots of talks with God and being backed so it was a good accomplishment for the team, not just myself."
