The fixture represented the third meeting between the teams in succession following heavyweight bouts in the Subway League Cup final then Champions League quarter-final first leg.
Sonia Bompastor’s team edged Nick Cushing’s side for the maiden trophy of the term in the first encounter before we gained an early advantage in Europe at the Joie Stadium.
On that occasion, second-half goals from Vivianne Miedema helped us to a 2-0 success at the Joie Stadium in the second straight clash.
But full focus was back on the league and our pursuit of Champions League qualification as we welcomed the Londoners to the Etihad.
How did proceedings play out in front of over 10,000 supporters?
