Manchester City know they have to at least score in the return game with Atlético Madrid after conccding late on in the home leg. Janine Beckie gave City a good start with a goal on 13 minutes after Keira Walsh’s through-ball was touched on by Caroline Weir. Ellie Roebuck made a great double save to deny Angela Sosa and then tip Elena Linari’s half-volley onto the woodwork but Charlyn Corral equalised in the final 10 minutes.
Brøndby proved perfect hosts to Glasgow City as they twice helped the ball into their own net. Emilie Henriksen did so in the opening seconds from a Sam Kerr shot on goal and keeper Katrine Abel followed suit on the hour mark when misjudging Leanne Ross’ free-kick.
