Manchester City Women secure first Champions League victory against Inter Milan

Manchester City revitalized their European campaign with a commanding 4-1 victory over Inter Milan in Monza. Despite opening their league phase with three consecutive draws, the visitors produced a clinical performance to secure their first three points of the tournament, moving them within one point of the top four.

A clinical turnaround

Manager Andree Jeglertz rotated his squad ahead of a crucial upcoming WSL clash with Chelsea, leaving key figures like Khadija Shaw on the bench. The decision faced early pressure when Inter took the lead through an Elisa Bartoli header in the 24th minute. However, City responded swiftly, with Aoba Fujino netting twice before the break to swing the momentum firmly in the visitors' favor.

The second half saw City extend their dominance as Kerstin Casparij and Grace Clinton added further goals to seal the result. The victory provides a significant confidence boost for the squad as they prepare for their high-stakes meeting with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
