Women’s Super League: Shaw doubles up to give Manchester City winning start

The Story So Far
West Ham United’s rivals in the Women’s Super League have commenced their latest season, with Manchester City securing an early victory. Khadija Shaw, the reigning top scorer in the division, proved instrumental by finding the net twice to ensure her side started the campaign with a win. Having recently committed her future to the club during the summer break, the Jamaican international continued the prolific form she established last year. As West Ham United look to establish themselves, other opening results saw wins for Arsenal, Crystal Palace, Liverpool, and Tottenham Hotspur. This round sets a competitive tone for the season.
