Back-to-back wins

The win over Liverpool follows another recent victory, pointing to a positive run of form for Manchester United Women in the current stage of the competition. Fixtures between the two sides traditionally draw strong attention from fans and media alike, with the rivalry carrying much of the same intensity associated with the clubs' men's teams.
