Report: Manchester City 1-2 Arsenal Women

A late Stina Blackstenius brace saw us come from 1-0 down to win 2-1 away to Manchester City in the Barclays Women's Super League on Sunday.

Lauren Hemp gave City the lead in the first half, but second-half substitute Blackstenius scored in the 89th and 92nd minutes to turn the game around.

What happened

City ought to have found the opener in the sixth minute when Leila Ouahabi scuffed the ball wide from Hemp's cross, and they came close again as Laia Aleixandri got on the end of a Chloe Kelly free-kick only to see her shot blocked.
