Bunny Shaw opened her goal account for 2023-24 as Manchester City proved far too strong for Bristol City in a 5-0 WSL win at the Joie Stadium.
The Citizens never had to get out of first gear against newly-promoted opponents, with Gareth Taylor’s side five goals to the good before half-time.
It took less than nine minutes for the deadlock to be broken, with club-record summer signing Jill Roord bundling home after a Shaw effort cannoned back off the crossbar. Chloe Kelly then had a shot cleared off the line while a brave header from Shaw was ruled out for offside before Laixa Aleixandri glanced in a second with 33 minutes on the clock.
Shaw got her first of the season five minutes later, when rising between two defenders to nod into the net, and there were two more headed goals before the break – with Roord getting the first of those in first-half stoppage-time and Shaw the second, following good work down the right by Kelly.With three points already safely wrapped up, City were happy to take their foot off the gas after the break.
It feels slightly harsh to brand Kaylan Marckese a “loser”, but any day in which you pick the ball out of the back of your net on five occasions is a bad day. The American goalkeeper, who is on loan at Bristol City from Arsenal, was left hopelessly exposed at times. She did her best to keep the score down, with a couple of smart saves completed, but the Florida has been given a baptism of fire in the WSL after conceding on three occasions last time out against Tottenham.
