The victory was Manchester City’s first in the competition this season after draws with Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain. Elisa Bartoli opened the scoring for Inter in the 24th minute after a delivery from Ivana Andrés. Manchester City equalised nine minutes later when Aoba Fujino converted a pass from Laura Blindkilde Brown. Fujino completed her brace late in the first half after Inter’s defence failed to clear a shot by Mary Fowler. In the second half, Kerstin Casparij scored in the 56th minute after a pass from Sam Coffey, and Grace Clinton converted a cross from Lauren Hemp in the 70th minute to set the final score. Manchester City goalkeeper Ayaka Yamashita saved her team twice in the second half, stopping a shot from Haley Bugeja and reacting to a close-range attempt by Michela Cambiaghi. ## Why it matters The Women’s Champions League is Europe’s premier club tournament for women’s football. Inter arrived at the Stadio Brianteo on the back of a 3-0 Serie A Femminile win over AC Milan, underlining the defensive solidity that has defined their season. Manchester City had responded to recent challenges in the Women’s Super League by thrashing West Ham 5-0 in their last league fixture, showing their attacking quality and their ability to produce high-level football consistently. A 1-1 draw with Paris Saint-Germain in City’s most recent Women’s Champions League outing had left qualification open, and a victory in Italy would give the team a significant boost in the group standings. ## Team news As The Guardian reports, Andrée Jeglertz rotated his squad ahead of Saturday’s meeting with Chelsea. Khadija Shaw, Lauren Hemp, Yui Hasegawa and Rebecca Knaak started the match on the bench, while Alex Greenwood did not travel to Italy due to an ankle injury. ## What happens next Manchester City face Chelsea on Saturday, UA.News reported.
