CITY 💙

"Really pleased, it was about qualification for us tonight.

“It was a really gritty performance, on the quality of this pitch it probably didn’t look it for the viewers watching it but it was a really lively surface. We worked so hard.

“I felt there were some areas we could of control the play better. Have to give credit to Hammarby, they were really aggressive.

“Really pleased and proud of the players, they dug in tonight.”

“It’s a good feeling. It was a difficult game tonight, but we managed to get the job done.”

“It was a very difficult game tonight. The atmosphere and the pitch – it was our first time playing on astro turf so it took us a while to get going.

“Once we did, we tried to execute what we know we’re good at. Some parts we could’ve tidied up on, but at the end of the day, the most important thing is qualifying and that’s what we’ve done.”

“Yeah, like I said, we have the experience and quality in the team and we’re used to these atmospheres."

City secure passage into the Champions League quarter-finals with victory in Sweden. Well played, Blues!

City are doing well to keep the ball here in the closing stages, Bunny first kept it by the corner before sweeping back down the line with it coming to both defenders. Hammarby win a header and Keating gathers. 

Fowler skips past a challenge by the touchline and sends the ball down the line to Park. She then holds it up and wins a throw. Excellent game management. 

There will be a minimum of 4 minutes added at the end of the second half. Final push now, City. 

The set play is again met by Kennedy who heroically heads away - not for the first time tonight. She's been colossal for City tonight.
