City returned to the summit of the WSL and extended our unbeaten start to the 2024/25 season to nine matches.
We had to come from behind though, with Gabi Nunes poking home Kirsty Hanson’s low cross to give the visitors the lead after 20 minutes.
The Blues were on top but couldn’t make that pressure count, with Lauren Hemp and Jill Roord both going close to drawing us level.

And it was Hemp who provided City with the equaliser after the hour mark, taking a touch with her head before lobbing the ball over her shoulder and into the net.
Eight minutes later Roord completed the comeback with her first goal since coming back from an ACL injury.
After some superb skills from Hemp down the left, she slid a ball back to Roord who took one touch before thundering in City’s second.
Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw and Hemp had the opportunity to put further daylight between the sides but we ultimately had to settle for a one-goal victory.
