    A first meaningful involvement for Jess Park since being introduced into the action.

    Her driving run inside looks to open up a shooting opportunity, but her decision to play the ball off to Khadija Shaw instead sees it roll harmlessly into the gloves of Kaylan Marckese.

    Into the final 15 minutes at Joie Stadium and the score remains as it did at the interval.

    The home side have had plenty of chances to add to their ample lead but Bristol City have done better to be equal to the attempts on their goal in this second half.

    FT: Man Utd 1-1 Leicester

    Manchester United and Leicester City continued their unbeaten starts to the Women's Super League season with an entertaining draw at Leigh Sports Village.

    The hosts, who secured an impressive 1-1 draw with Paris St-Germain on their Champions League debut on Tuesday, suffered an early setback when they lost defender Gabby George to injury in the ninth minute.

    But they recovered to carve out the better opportunities, coming closest to opening the scoring in first-half stoppage time when Hinata Miyazawa struck the underside of the bar.

    Lucia Garcia also forced a good save out of Leicester keeper Janina Leitzig before the break.

    Leicester, who had won all three of their games prior to this fixture, were second best for large periods but snatched the lead early in the second half when Aileen Whelan turned in at the back post following a free kick.

    Manchester United responded well to that blow and deservedly equalised through Maya Le Tissier's header.

  11. 'We have to stop coming from behind'published at 14:35 British Summer Time 15 October 2023

    FT: Man Utd 1-1 Leicester

    Manchester United

    Manchester United boss Marc Skinner, speaking to MUTV: "We were not good enough in that final third today. In the build up we could have been quicker. Leicester had a 0.26 expected goals but defend like that we will concede goals.

    "There was a lot of endeavour, a lot of us trying to, but we need to be more ruthless. Standards need to be up here, you can't dip below them in this league.

    "The reality is in that game there were chances there we had to bury. If you are not creating the chances that is different but we have a lot to rejig with a quick turnaround.

    "We have the mentality, but there are times we are trying to to pass rather than shooting. If you are in a shooting position, shoot. That is where we have to grow. We are getting there. We have shown we can come from behind again, but we have to stop coming from behind."

    On Gabby George, any update? "Not yet. I wouldn't imagine it looks good though. We will look after Gabby. It didn't look like a good one, I hope she is okay."

    On Mary Earps: "She didn't have a lot to do today and that is the most frustrating part. She is a huge part of what we do and against PSG we will need her."

    If Arsenal want to compete with the best teams in the WSL, their defending needs to be better. People can make the excuse that many big names for Arsenal are out injured, but the best teams find a way to work it out. Arsenal will be disappointed with the manner they conceded the goal. The decision making in the final third has been poor thus far.

    Another stop in play now.

    Alanna Kennedy seemed to take a knock to the head while contesting that set piece in the box.

    The defender is back on her feet and seems fine to play on.
