7.2/10Late Drama: Manchester City W Snatch Victory Over Liverpool W in Stoppage Time
Manchester City Women secured a dramatic 1-0 win over Liverpool Women at the Academy Stadium, with the only goal arriving in the dying moments of the match. In a contest that was fiercely contested and evenly matched for the majority of the 90 minutes, it took a late surge from the hosts to finally break Liverpool's resistance. Both sides battled hard, with tempers occasionally flaring as evidenced by two yellow cards apiece, but ultimately it was City's persistence that paid dividends. Liverpool defended resolutely and looked set to take a point back to Merseyside, but a lapse in concentration deep into stoppage time allowed Manchester City to find the breakthrough. The late goal sent the home fans into raptures and ensured City took all three points in a match where clear-cut chances were at a premium.
