12 h. ago Reborn and ruthless: can Manchester City realise their WSL title dream?

There are raindrops depicted on Manchester City’s third kit, with a deliberate nod to the often unsettled weather.

Yet it was testament to the resolution he has shown all season that while down he was far from out, as he proved in going on to claim the title that he felt had slipped away.When Norris took the world championship with his third‑place finish in Abu Dhabi on Sunday he became the first British champion since Lewis Hamilton took his last title in 2020 and, similar to Hamilton for his first win in 2008, he had to show his absolute determination to close it out after a rollercoaster ride for the 26-year-old.
