Khadija Shaw's return to form was marked by a stellar performance against Liverpool, where she scored twice to help Manchester City secure a 4-0 victory. This win was essential for City, who were struggling in the Women's Super League.

Despite the abuse, she made a strong comeback, receiving warm support from fans, indicating her importance not only on the pitch but also in the broader fight against racism in sports.
Shaw's goals showcased a mix of power and finesse, reflecting her unique capability in the WSL, crucial for Manchester City's performance.
