    Man City 2-0 Fiorentina

    Man City 2-0 Fiorentina

    I did the live text for Man City v Wolves in the Premier League last night, and this feels like I'm watching the same match.

    Fiorentina aren't being allowed any time on the ball and the hosts have them right where they want them.

    Chloe Kelly is causing Fiorentina all sorts of problems so far.

    The England international gets the better of her marker once again and isn't far away from another assist as her cross is headed inches over the bar by Ellen White.

    Man City 2-0 Fiorentina

    Fiorentina try to create something for themselves but City are back in numbers to win back possession.

    Steph Houghton is almost playing as a midfielder as she attempts to thread another ball through the Fiorentina lines. It's five at the back for the Italians at the moment.

    Man City 2-0 Fiorentina

    Fiorentina look stunned. This is so easy for City so far.

    They go close to a third inside seven minutes as Chloe Kelly is denied at the near post and Ellen White's follow-up header is also saved.

    Ellen White

    Fiorentina need to wake up fast!

    Caroline Weir gets down the left for City and sends a low cross into the box which Ellen White meets at the near post.

    It's a neat first-time finish from White to sneak the ball past Katja Shroffenegger.

    It really is a dream start for the hosts.

    Lauren Hemp

    A perfect start!

    This is all about Chloe Kelly on the right wing.

    Kelly beats Fiorentina defender Greta Adami and delivers a brilliant cross which Lauren Hemp meets with a powerful header at the back post.

    Great cross, great finish.

    Manchester City boss Gareth Taylor believes his side are good enough to win the Champions League this season.

    "I believe we can win it, I think we're good enough to win it," he said.
