Manchester City manager Gareth Taylor admitted his side's second half performance blew him away in their comeback win against Chelsea in the Continental Cup final. City trailed 1-0 at the break, but scored four minutes into the second half and were 3-1 up by 70 minutes, a scoreline they preserved to win a morale-boosting final after a testing season.
City quickly saw their Women's Super League title chances derailed with a poor start hampered by a number of key injuries, while Chelsea knocked them out of last season's postponed FA Cup in one of two heavy defeats inflicted on City in quick succession in November. However, since then, players have returned and City have dramatically turned their form around, with this latest win in the final a 12th unbeaten game in their last 13.
And manager Taylor couldn't hide his delight after watching his side produce a fine attacking display in the second half against Chelsea on Sunday to lift their eighth trophy in as many seasons.
