Despite the Reds dominating at Leigh Sports Village, it was Leicester who opened the scoring on the hour mark through Aileen Whelan, with the Foxes’ skipper free at the back post to fire them ahead.
United hit back seven minutes later though, courtesy of a sweeping Maya Le Tissier header from Katie Zelem’s corner.
Back at Leigh for the third game in succession, the Reds welcomed the Foxes for the latest early-season instalment of our 2023/24 WSL campaign. The fixture would come to a concerning halt just seven minutes in, with defender Gabby George requiring treatment for an injury that ultimately saw her withdrawn from the action.
