Man City Women beat Man Utd 3-0 at the Etihad Stadium to move four points clear at the top of the Barclays WSL.

City took the lead just after 25 minutes when a Lauren Hemp corner was headed back across goal by Khadija Shaw, allowing Rebecca Knaak to nod it home.

Two goals just before the break sent City in with a 3-0 advantage, as Shaw slid in to tuck away Kerstin Casparij’s inch-perfect cross and Hemp found the top corner from the edge of the box.
