Manchester City took a huge step towards the Conti Cup quarter finals after beating Liverpool 2-0 at Prenton Park.
City started the evening three points behind Liverpool with a game in hand, however goals from Filippa Angeldahl and Mary Fowler saw Gareth Taylor's side climb above the Reds to top Group B ahead of their final group stage game against Leicester on December 17. It was a cagey first half with the hosts coming closest to taking the lead when Missy Bo Kearns' curling effort was well saved by Sandy MacIver.
City broke the deadlock shortly after the break, Angeldahl rifling the ball home after Liverpool failed to clear a Julie Blakstad corner. And Gareth Taylor's side doubled their lead on the 74-minute mark, substitute Lauren Hemp dancing past the Liverpool defence down the left flank and putting the ball on a plate for Mary Fowler, who coolly found the back of the net.
