"Both sides impressed in defence at St Helens Stadium, but it was in the final third where they faltered, with neither team able to register a shot on target in the contest. The clearest opportunity in the first half fell to Liverpool after a mistake by London City goalkeeper Elene Lete, who recovered well as Ceri Holland closed in to dispossess her."
"Data Debrief: Liverpool's wait for a win goes on This game will not be remembered fondly by both sets of supporters, with the contest producing a combined expected goals (xG) total of just 0.58 (0.41 for Liverpool to London City's 0.17) from the nine attempts in the match. It means another game has ticked by without a win for the Reds."
London City Lionesses began the Eder Maestre era with a 0-0 draw against Liverpool at St Helens Stadium. Both teams defended well but faltered in the final third, with neither registering a shot on target. The clearest first-half chance came after goalkeeper Elene Lete recovered from a mistake as Ceri Holland closed in. Alice Bergstrom nearly beat Lete with an attempted chip and was later denied by Elena Linari's block, while Holland blasted a counter-attack over the bar. The match produced a combined xG of 0.58 (0.41 for Liverpool, 0.17 for London City). Liverpool remain bottom and winless; London City sit seventh.
