Georgia Stanway scored a superb hat-trick as City climbed to second in the FA Women’s Super League by thrashing Brighton & Hove Albion.
The teenage forward opened the scoring with a 20-yard drive before Caroline Weir stroked home Nikita Parris’ cross.
Stanway completed her hat-trick after the break with a long-range effort which dipped under Marie Hourihan and a fierce shot from the edge of the box.

The goals kept on coming as Parris headed in a fifth before Claire Emslie’s shot completed the rout.
Nick Cushing’s side have now scored 13 goals in the past two games following last week’s 7-1 thrashing of West Ham.
It means the Blues have gone above Birmingham in the table but remain one point behind leaders Arsenal having played a game more.
