City Women finish 3rd in the League just missing out on promotion. 

FA Womens Premier League - Northern Division
Manchester City Ladies FC 1 - 2  Leicester City Women FC 

Leanne Hall in Leicester's goal made 2 brilliant saves from the Citizen's Rebecca Lee & Krystal Johnson and thankfully for that on 32 minutes the Foxes took the lead with a fierce header from Annabel Johnson from a Natasha Meade corner.

The score remained the same up to half-time.
On 53 minutes Manchester equalised through Krystal Johnson, but the Foxes regained the lead in the 60th minute, when Courtney Sweetman-Kirk fired home from 20 yards from a Katie Lowder through ball and this eventually gave Leicester the 3 points to finish 3rd in the league. 

Leicester finished the season the highest goalscorers in all three divisions of the Women's Premier League and City's Natasha Meade has won the Golden Boot award for the Northern Division with 15 League goals, with their other sharp shooter, Courtney Sweetman-Kirk finishing joint 2nd with 14 goals.

It's 6 up for Leicester City Women FC as they win the Cup - again!!
