Wassa Sangare was down receiving treatment and she is unable to continue.

Alanna Kennedy comes on to replace her.

Liverpool deal with the corner but City are just starting to up the ante.

Here they come again. Kerstin Casparij races down the right and whips a cross to the back post.

Khadija Shaw meets it but Jenna Clark does just enough to make it tough for the striker and the header is off target.

That is such a spectacular strike with her right foot. She takes a touch and opens up her body, a great shot from Holdt. She knows where she wants to put it and makes no mistake.

Cascarino will not want to watch that back. She trips over the ball and it happens to us all. It's never nice when it leads to a goal.

Poppy Pattinson then floats a cross into the box but it is an easy save for Lize Kop.

That chance has given Manchester City some confidence and Lauren Hemp is running at Risa Shimizu again.

The defender blocks the cross but City have another corner.

It makes such a difference when you get Hemp on the ball. City haven't used the grass in behind Shimizu yet, but when they did there she has the run on the defender all day. Incredible pace.

From nowhere, Manchester City should take the lead!

A ball played down the inside left looks comfortable for Risa Shimizu to deal with but Lauren Hemp's pace sees her whizz past the Liverpool full-back.

She cuts the ball back to an unmarked Khadija Shaw and you just expect the net to bulge - but the low shot is too close to Jennifer Falk, who gets down well to make the save.

Olivia Holdt floats a ball into the box but it evades her team-mates.

Plenty of crosses from Tottenham in the opening stages.

More than halfway through the first half and while it has been much more even in the past 10-15 minutes, there is no doubt that Liverpool have had the better of it so far.

With the early chances they had, they will feel they should be ahead.

Maika Hamano's low strike is well saved by Elene Lete as the hosts look to increase their lead.

I think Gareth Taylor has been able to implement his playing style and you can see that now. They are a team who likes to possess the play, they want to be brave and credit to them for that.

Well, City tried to get it into the box but it is met by a red shirt and out it goes.

Man City need to get Hemp into the game, and the same on the other side with Fujino. They've not been involved much at all so far.

More good pressing in the Liverpool half helps City win a free-kick inside the visitors' half.

A chance for Andree Jeglertz's side to get the ball into the box...

Both sides are unable to gain control in this game, there have been a lot of misplaced passes in the opening 20 minutes.

A lot of these opportunities for Man City are coming through the high press. They're winning the ball back high up the pitch. These are the chances that they have been waiting for.

Ceri Holland takes another corner from the right and it causes more problems, bouncing right in the middle of penalty area.

It bounces up to hit Rebecca Knaak right in the face. Ouch. The City defender has been in the wars so far.

Everything is just a little bit loose from both teams at the minute. Both sides are doing well to win the ball back, but they are giving the ball away cheaply.

If you are a Liverpool player the game plan is spot on. City haven’t gotten out of their half, they are really locked in.

Liverpool have silenced the party that was at the beginning of the game. I think Liverpool actually watched that Brighton game, who were really direct and City struggled with that directness and they are struggling already against Liverpool and their high press.
