Manchester City secured a significant 5-0 victory over West Ham United, marking their 13th consecutive win and setting a new record in the Women's Super League (WSL). This victory propelled them to the top of the league. However, the triumph was overshadowed by an injury to their star striker, 27-year-old Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw, who sustained a foot injury during the match. Shaw, the WSL's top scorer, is expected to miss the remainder of the season, a major setback for Manchester City as they aim to continue their winning streak. The injury was first reported by Kathryn Batte.
