The Blues got our defence of the WSL title off to a winning start with a 3-1 triumph over the WSL 2 champions.
City had to wait until the second half to break through, with Mary Fowler’s low drive soon after the restart putting us in front.
The Australian’s strike was our 1,000th as a professional outfit, and it didn’t take long for Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw to add to that tally.

Indeed, it was two just six minutes later when the Jamaican met Kerstin Casparij’s corner to glance home into the far corner and give City some dayling.
Jeglertz’s side were in control and Shaw added a third as stoppage time approached, again from a set-piece.
This time, she powered home Beth Mead’s corner to put the game beyond doubt, meaning a late strike by Oceane Hurtre was only a consolation for the visitors.
