Manchester City Women are Continental Cup Champions once again.

Manchester City Women beat Chelsea 3-1 at Wimbledon’s Plough Lane to clinch the trophy for a fourth time.
In front of a sell-out crowd, City came from behind to triumph, after Sam Kerr had opened the scoring, thanks to a sensational second half display in which Caroline Weir bagged and brace and Ellen White netted her 30th City goal.
There was further cause for celebration as Lucy Bronze made her 100th appearance – and she could not have picked a better night to achieve the milestone: another incredible achievement for the Club.
Buoyed by a vocal London crowd, Chelsea laid immediate siege to the City goal. Ellie Roebuck had to be alert to a number of dangerous crosses, as Pernille Harder made a nuisance of herself in the early exchanges. There was a penalty shout for handball against Alanna Kennedy dismissed by referee Lisa Benn.
Having weathered the storm, City grew into the game and were desperately unlucky not to have opened the scoring on 26 minutes, as Lauren Hemp adjusted well to Georgia Stanway’s rasping cross but saw her effort bounce agonisingly back off the post
