Three points see Manchester City stay in second place in the Women's Super League for another week following a 4-1 home win against Reading.
They now sit just three points behind local rivals Manchester United and four ahead of Chelsea. An emphatic performance from Gareth Taylor's front three sent the Royals packing.
It was Sanne Troelsgaard Nielsen who shocked the entire Academy Stadium when she capitalised on the chaos at the edge of City’s area within the first minute of play, but the City we are used to seeing soon turned up.
Chloe Kelly nudged the ball into the back of the net to level the scores, and Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw put City ahead with a looping header and then Lauren Hemp sealed the win by sliding the ball in at the back post.
