A ruthless display of attacking football ensured City made a flying start to our defence of the Continental Cup, with an emphatic 5-0 win over Leicester City.
Caroline Weir and Pauline Bremer each grabbed a brace before Tessa Wullaert completed the scoring, curling into the top corner to net the pick of the bunch and send City top of Group C after one game.

Nick Cushing had made six changes to the team that started against Reading, handing debuts to Karima Benameur, Matilde Fidalgo and Tyler Toland and City were made to work hard for the three points.
Leicester were resolute in their defending early on and only trailed by one goal at the break, but City moved through the gears in the second period when our quality proved too much for the Championship outfit.
