🚨 WSL: Hemp show sees Man City go top with Aston Villa comeback win

After Brighton bagged a 1-1 draw with Manchester United on Saturday, the other 10 WSL sides are in action on Sunday.

Here’s what went down.

Hemp stars for Man City as they come back to beat Villa

Scorers: Nunes 20′; Hemp 62′, Roord 70′

Manchester City put on a second half show to cancel out Aston Villa’s advantage with a 2-1 win.

Yet while the home side controlled the possession in the opening 20 minutes, they lacked a cutting edge to their play.

Aston Villa took advantage with a quick counter-attack as Kirsty Hanson showed great pace and strength down the left wing to get her cross into the box, and Gabi Nunes netted her first Villa goal by getting in front of the defender and guiding the ball into the net.

Into the second half, and Lauren Hemp was making things happen all over the pitch, so it was somewhat inevitable when the England winger was the one to get Man City level as she gave herself some space by heading the ball into the air and hooking her shot beyond Sabrina D’Angelo.

Hemp then went from scorer to provider as some determined work and a sharp burst of pace down the left wing allowed her to pull back the ball for Jill Roord, who scored her first goal since coming back from a lengthy ACL injury.
