Manchester City 2-1 Everton

82 min: This is a case of game management for the three-time League Cup winners now as Houghton let’s the ball slowly roll out for a goal kick.

Very difficult for Everton now.

80 min: That was some finish from Kelly and one Korpela could do nothing about.

Moments later the ball falls to Lavelle inside the box but Korpela does excellently to smother her as she denies the American a second of the evening.

GOAL! Chloe Kelly completes the turnaround against her former club!

The former Everton striker makes no mistake from close range after a brilliant ball to the front post is converted by the lethal youngster!

75 min: Anyone for any more subs? That’s five now for Everton and frankly it’s getting a little difficult to type so quickly…

74 min: SUB! Christiansen comes on to face her former club in place of Sorensen. Graham also into the fold in place of Clemaron.

72 min: Neither team wants penalties here, they both want the three points. A wicked delivery from a Man City corner evades everyone and bounces away for a goal kick.

City have played well tonight but Gareth Taylor will be slightly concerned at their wastefulness in front of goal.

69 min: CLOSE! Chance at the other end as Everton catch City playing it out in their own half. Gauvin turns and fires towards the bottom corner but Bardsley is equal to it and tips the ball away really well.

Top forward play and even better goalkeeping.

68 min: Stokes feeds Kelly and the ex-Evertonian hits the byline once more. She rifles the ball across the box towards Lavelle but it’s too quick and the American can’t react quickly enough.

End-to-end stuff now!

66 min: After City’s equaliser you would have put your house on them going on to win this game. But in the last ten minutes the Toffees have fought back and now possibly look the more likely to go and find a decider.

Intriguing last 25 minutes or so here.

63 min: Free-kick to Everton as Kelly upends Sorensen. A good chance for the Toffees to get the ball in the box here.

It’s whipped in by Emslie. Bardsley comes for the ball but doesn’t get there and it flies up in the air again before being lobbed over the top for a goal kick.
