Liverpool FC Women completed their pre-season games with a highly competitive clash against Manchester United Women at Leigh Sports Village on Sunday afternoon.
Vicky Jepson’s side has developed a familiar look with a front three of Rinsola Babajide and Jess Clarke flanking new signing Amalie Thestrup.
Rhiannon Roberts and Amy Rodgers again anchored midfield, with Taylor Hinds at left-back and Ashley Hodson on the right.
Goalkeeper Rachael Laws was out sharply to deny Jane Ross on 10 minutes, the header from the subsequent corner going over.
The Reds’ first effort on goal was a Babajide shot from distance on the quarter-hour mark, after Rodgers had won a good tackle in midfield.
