Man City breathe a sigh of relief! Manager Gareth Taylor confirms Alex Greenwood has not sustained serious injury after substitution during UWCL qualifier

Champions League

Manchester City Women

Barcelona

<p>The centre-back went off with an injury in the 36th minute of the Champions League qualifying tie at home against the French club on Thursday. Despite that blow, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/man-city-player-ratings-vs-paris-fc-bunny-shaw-chloe-kelly-dazzles-champions-league/bltd4237c0a4e809938" target="_blank">the English side went on to win 3-0</a> to book their place in the group stage of the competition.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>The Women's Super League feared that the 31-year-old could be out for a long period of time as it was thought she may have suffered anterior cruciate ligament damage, but Taylor is confident that the Lionesses star's situation is not so serious.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>"I think Alex [Greenwood] will be fine," he told reporters. "Again, because I’ve been outside, I know she was being assessed by the medical team but she’s fine, I had a conversation with her and she told me she’s okay. That’s typical Alex, she’s tough in those situations and will play through the pain.</p><p>"I think the challenge she took was probably one of the first actions of the game and she lasted about 15 minutes before she felt it could be too much. We were probably looking at relieving her at half-time but took the decision a little bit earlier."</p>

WHAT TAYLOR SAID

<p>City, who were drawn in a group with Barcelona, St Polten and Hammarby in the Champions League, started their WSL campaign with a 2-2 draw against Arsenal and will take on Brighton at home this weekend.</p>
