Manager Andree Jeglertz rested key players Khadija Bunny Shaw and Lauren Hemp ahead of the Chelsea clash. This victory places City in seventh spot on the league standings, positioning them ahead of Real Madrid. This result keeps hopes alive for a seeded spot in the play-off round. Three draws from the first three games had left the side at risk of missing out on automatic qualification.
