Manchester United put two past City to earn their first-ever win over their local rivals in club history at the top tier. Lucia Garcia nudged the ball into the back of the net in stoppage time to clinch the three points and keep the Reds' title dreams alive.
Hayley Ladd found the back of the net two minutes after kick-off, while City fought back with ten players when finally, Filippa Angeldahl got the equaliser in the 68th minute. But with six minutes of stoppage time, substitute Garcia's winner saw United over the line.
Moments before the break Roebuck was shown a straight red card for wiping Nikita Parris clean out - the crowd booing around the ground as the goalkeeper made her way off the field.
