The Blues delivered a clinical attacking performance at the Joie Stadium, with our 6-0 win moving us 11 points clear at the top for at least 48 hours.
City were four goals ahead at the break thanks to goals from Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw and Yui Hasegawa either side of a Vivianne Miedema brace.
Leicester did go close twice in the first 45, twice striking the woodwork through Alisha Lehmann and Shannon O’Brien, but a fifth would follow soon after the restart to put the game to bed.

It was Kerolin who grabbed it, firing home into the top corner with a powerful drive, before Aoba Fujino came off the bench to complete the scoring midway through the second half.
Shaw twice went close to adding to our tally late on, first seeing a goalbound effort blocked on the line by Julie Thibaud, before the offside flag cut her celebrations short deep into stoppage time after she’d converted a Lauren Hemp cross.
It did little to dampen an excellent display from City, who maintained our 100% record on home soil this season in the WSL with victory.
