Shaw’s scoring streak continues as City clip Lionesses

LONDON, England (CMC): Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw found the back of the net for the ninth time this season as Manchester City secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory over London City Lionesses in Women’s Super League (WSL) action yesterday. Shaw opened the scoring early in the second half, but City needed a goal from Lauren Hemp to secure all three points after Jana Fernandez drew the Lionesses level. The Lionesses dominated much of the first half and almost went ahead after just 30 seconds when Rebecca Knaak nearly turned Lucia Corrales’ dangerous cross into her own net.
