Gareth Taylor’s side controlled possession in the opening exchanges and City’s dominance was rewarded through a low, powerful shot outside the penalty area from captain, Jill Roord, after 20 minutes to give City the lead.
Laura Coombs provided the second goal we craved for security, after her initial shot deflected on to the crossbar, she was able to volley the rebound past the Ipswich keeper.
On the hour mark, Vivianne Miedema returned to match action after a three month period on the sidelines.
It didn’t take the Dutch international long to get back amongst the goals after her shot across goal rippled the net to round off a impressive afternoon’s display and advance through to the fifth round.
