Watch the short highlights of City’s 2-2 draw with Arsenal on the opening day of the 2024/25 Barclays Women’s Super League season.

In what proved to be an enthralling encounter in north London, the hosts broke the deadlock in the eighth minute when Frida Maanum fired home from close range after the ball fell to her feet.

As the match ebbed and flowed, Ayaka Yamashita’s brilliance kept the visitors in the match before Vivianne Miedema equalised on her return to her former employers.

After industrious work from Laia ALeixandri, the ball fell to the Dutch striker whose powerful effort from the edge of the box found the net via a deflection.

Following the break, Jess Park then gave Gareth Taylor’s side the lead just before the hour mark with a stunning effort which she flicked up and struck a half-volley in off the crossbar.

However, Arsenal secured a share of the spoils late on when Beth Mead tapped home late on.
