  1. Goodbye for now

    We're going to leave it there for now. You'll be able to catch the report from Manchester City's win and Sunday's two other games so far over here.

    We'll be back with Aston Villa v Tottenham and league leaders Arsenal v bottom of the league Leicester City from 17:45 GMT.

    See you then.

  2. Post update

    FT: Birmingham City 2-3 Manchester City

    There were plenty of encouraging signs today for Birmingham caretaker Darren Carter.

    If his side play like that for the rest of the season they will definitely pick up points along the way.

  3. FULL-TIME

    Birmingham City 2-3 Manchester City

    All over.

    A BIG win for Manchester City.

    What a game.

  4. Post update

    Birmingham City 2-3 Manchester City

    We are into the final minute of added time.

    Birmingham have a throw-in deep in their own half.

  5. Post update

    Birmingham City 2-3 Manchester City

    There were six minutes of added time by the way.

    Manchester City have safely negotiated four of them.

  6. GOAL - Birmingham City 2-3 Manchester City

    Ellen White

    Who else?

    Khadija Shaw does brilliantly down the right-hand side and she crosses for Ellen White, who gets in front of her marker at the near post taps home.

    A BIG goal for Gareth Taylor and Manchester City.

  7. Post update

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    The game has been a bit stop-start in the last five minutes with neither side able to create any clear-cut opportunities.

  8. Post update

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    Now the hosts' turn to press for a winner.

    Veatriki Sarri does well down the left and her cross is parried to Lucy Whipp, who hits over the bar.

  9. GOOD SAVE!

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    Khadija Shaw now has an effort saved at the near post.

    The visitors are pressing for a winner.

  10. CLOSE!

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    Almost!

    Ellen White has barely been in this game but she's almost put Manchester City into the lead for the first time.

    Khadija Shaw works a cross in from the right and White gets in front of her marker to poke towards goal but Marie Hourihan smothers it.

    Great save.

  11. Post update

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    BIG chance!

    Lauren Hemps earns Manchester City another corner. It is taken short to Alex Greenwood and her cross ends up at Alanna Kennedy at the back post, but, unmarked, the Australian scoops over the bar from four yards.

    She has to hit the target!

  12. CLOSE!

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    Oh!

    Caroline Weir opts to go for goal with a free-kick from about 25 yards out and Marie Hourihan gets down to turn it round the post.

    The corner comes to nothing.

  13. SUBSTITUTIONS

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    A change apiece.

    Lucy Quinn replaces Libby Smith for the hosts, while Khadija Shaw comes on for Hayley Raso for Manchester City.

  14. YELLOW CARD

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    Georgia Stanway, who I can't imagine has played at left-back too many times, joins Ellen White in the book.

    She brings Jade Pennock down just past the half-way line.

  15. CLOSE!

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    Chance for the hosts!

    Ruby Mace and Alanna Kennedy are too casual with the ball at the back and they gift it to Libby Smith, who drops her shoulder to go past Alex Greenwood, but her effort goes a yard or so over the top of the bar.

  16. Post update

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    Manchester City are starting to get frustrated.

    Lauren Hemp kicks the air as her cross from the left loops harmlessly out of ball and then, off camera, it sounds like Caroline Weir has booted the ball against the advertising boards in frustration as the ball rolls out for a goal kick.

    The visitors are dominating possession but they are yet to create a clear-cut opportunity in this half.

  17. Post update

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    A change for Manchester City.

    Sweden international Filippa Angeldal is replaced by Vicky Losada.

  18. Post update

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    Georgia Stanway scored with an unreal strike in the first half to pull Manchester City level for the first time and she's looking to get the visitors into the lead.

    She goes rampaging down the left but she just overruns the ball slightly as she looks to cut-back into the area.

  19. CLOSE!

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    The hosts, having only scored two league goals all season and the second-fewest shots on target, have been a threat going forward today.

    A free-kick from the left is met by the head of Gemma Lawley, but she heads over from five yards out.

  20. Post update

    Birmingham City 2-2 Manchester City

    Thankfully for Alex Greenwood and Manchester City - who only have three outfield players on the bench - she is ok to continue.

    It looked like that could have been a lot more serious at one stage.

    She seems absolutely fine too as she races back to make a well-timed interception.
