All smiles at the final whistle


21:04

Professional performance

City came into this tie with a healthy advantage but still treated that game as if we needed the win.

That will surely please the manager, as well as the performances of some of our younger players. We'll hear from the boss shortly when he joins the media for his post-match press conference.

FT

Full-time

The final whistle goes here at the Joie Stadium... City are officially in the Champions League group stages!

Stay tuned for plenty of post-match reaction...

91'

Just wide

A decent chance for the visitors just then with Garbino hitting the side netting.

The substitute let the ball roll onto her left foot brilliantly, but her vicious effort was the wrong side of the post from a Paris FC perspective.

90'

Stoppage time

Four minutes to be played here.

88'

Speedy

Well Gareth Taylor wasn't lying... Murphy has pace to burn!

The forward races in behind but loses her footing at the crucial moment inside the area.

87'

Safe hands

Keating is once again alert to a ball over the City defence, beating Bussy to it to regain possession.

A composed performance from the goalkeeper tonight.

86'

Almost!

Nice little burst from Murphy down the City left, but before she can poke towards goal the Paris FC defence recover.

From the resultant corner the ball falls to Prior on the half-volley, but the defender's powerful strike is just over the bar!

84'

Five to play
