Manchester United Women hosted Manchester City at the Progress with Unity Stadium and the match ended 1-1, according to The Peoples Person. The teams were level at halftime, with Eva Olid's side having slightly more of the action. United had several early chances, including a shot by Ella Toone that was saved by City keeper Ayaka Yamashita. Jess Park also had a notable effort that hit the crossbar.

City took the lead after 67 minutes when Khadija Shaw scored, backing into Dominique Janssen and firing past United's goalkeeper Phallon Tullis-Joyce. United responded with a chance for Julia Zigiotti, who failed to score when a cross dropped to her. City nearly added a second goal when Grace Clinton beat Tullis-Joyce, but Maya Le Tissier cleared the ball off the line.

United equalized on 89 minutes after Elisabeth Terland scored from a rebound following a Maya Le Tissier cross that was headed out by Shaw. The match ended 1-1 after five minutes of added time, with United holding on for the draw. United Women will next play in the Players' Cup against Burnley on Wednesday night.

Source context

Manchester United Women welcomed Manchester City to the Progress with Unity Stadium. United pressed early on and Jess Park carried the ball forward, but she neither shot nor crossed and lost the chance. Lauren Hemp had the visitors’ first chance, but her effort was well stopped by Phallon Tullis-Joyce. Aoba Fujino was next to try her luck, but the ball drifted just wide of United’s post. Good combination play from Andrea Medina and Ella Toone resulted in a dangerous ball into the box, but it just evaded Elisabeth Terland. On the half-hour mark, Ella Toone had a shot from the edge of the area, but it was easily stopped by the City keeper, Ayaka Yamashita.
