A Jess Park brace and a Bunny Shaw strike earned a 3-1 victory over Manchester United and ensured a third success over our rivals in this campaign.
Gareth Taylor’s side were hugely impressive, making it 11 league wins in a row to further fire up our assault on a first WSL title since 2016.
City 3-1 Manchester United | Match report
Park was City’s first half inspiration, capping a wonderful all-round performance with well-taken goals on 37 and 45 minutes.
Shaw then took centre stage immediately after the restart, latching onto Park’s inviting assist before firing home to register her 68th career goal for City to see her overtake Georgia Stanway and become our all-time leading scorer.
United claimed a late strike when Hannah Blundell’s cross was diverted in via Kerstin Casperij but it was little more than consolation.
That didn’t dampen the atmosphere in the stands however, with thousands of City fans making the most of another great day.
