Man United condemn Blues to third 5-0 loss of the season

Manchester United 5-0 Birmingham City

​​​​​​​at Leigh Sports Village

MARC SKINNER extended his side’s winning streak to four games in all competitions as Manchester United trounced Birmingham City in the Women’s Super League on Saturday afternoon.

A victory of such magnitude further highlights just how sloppy Arsenal’s performance must have been for the Blues to beat them 2-0 at St Andrew’s last weekend.

Two goals and an assist from Leah Galton in the first half, coupled with a long-range Ella Toone effort, sealed the result for the reds before the clock had even struck 45 minutes.
