Ahead of our latest Barclays Women’s Super League Manchester derby at the Etihad Stadium, check out the best bits from our previous league encounter with the Red Devils as Gareth Taylor‘s side earned early-season bragging rights in November 2023.  

We welcome Marc Skinner’s side to the Etihad on Saturday 23 March, with kick-off scheduled for 12:30 (UK). 

Despite starting strongly, the visitors conceded the game’s first goal when Katie Zelem’s penalty squeezed past Khiara Keating.

Undeterred from falling behind, we flipped the scoreline on its head before the interval thanks to quickfire goals from Jill Roord and Lauren Hemp.

The Netherlands ace equalised when coolly slotting into the net from just inside the box before the skilful winger handed City the lead with a sublime, curling effort.

Taylor’s players then carried the momentum gained into the second half when Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw netted her fourth goal of the season when relentlessly closing down Mary Earp’s before blocking the England international’s clearance into the net.

Although we were reduced to 10-players with 20 minutes remaining, the Blues held on for a famous victory which saw us leapfrog Manchester United in the WSL table.
