But we are still going to try and do what we are supposed to do, but they are a really good team and they hurt us today. "But if you look at Man City and how they scored their goals this game, they are a really great team and we tried to play our style but they win the ball and they score goals.

Player of the match - Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw "I think Lauren is so good in those situations she creates so many problems for the full-back. "I thought we started the game flat and Lauren was the spark, but after we got the first goal you could see the confidence come. "Manchester United last week, she was immense in everything she gave and it is difficult to single out players. On Lauren Hemp's impact: "Lauren Hemp is someone who needs a challenge and needs to feel confident and has set such high standards these last few games.
