City secured a place in the quarter-finals with a 1-0 victory over the Gunners as we extended our winning streak to 10 matches.
Alexandrai scored the winner in the 74th minute when she smashed home a loose ball from close range for just her second goal for the Blues.
We remain in contention for three trophies after securing a place in the Continental Cup semi-finals in midweek as well as maintaining our Women’s Super League challenge.
And the Spanish defender said she is proud of her team-mates and excited by our performance at Meadow Park.
