Having lost to Spurs in the FA Cup in our previous outing, Gareth Taylor’s side were aiming to bounce back and record our 10th straight league win.
Lauren Hemp’s poked finish opened the scoring after an even opening quarter to the fixture at Broadfield Stadium before Mary Fowler doubled our lead on the cusp of the interval.
Our relentless attacking performance continued in the second half where Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw’s 17th of the season in all competitions and Laura Coombs’ drilled effort extended our advantage further.
The Seagull’s pulled a goal back in stoppage time through Lee Geum-Min, but it did little to dampen the visitors’ spirit.
It means City are level on points with league leaders, Chelsea – with only goal difference keeping us from the WSL’s summit.
