Manchester City Ready to Take on Paris FC in Champions League Action

Strong Starting Lineup for Manchester City

Manchester City is set to take on Paris FC in the Champions League tonight, with a very strong starting lineup expected to take to the pitch. However, there is one notable absentee from the team, as Kadija "Bunny" Shaw, the PFA Women’s Player of the Year, will not be able to play due to visa issues.

Visa Problems Halt Shaw’s Champions League Debut

Despite being one of the most in-form players in the women’s game, Shaw will not be able to line up for Manchester City tonight due to a failure to obtain a visa in time. This is a major blow to the team, as Shaw’s pace and skill on the pitch would have been a valuable asset against Paris FC.

Summer Signing Miedema Ready to Make Her Mark

On the bright side, Manchester City’s summer signing from Arsenal, Vivianne Miedema, is in the starting lineup and ready to make her mark in the Champions League. The Dutch striker has a proven track record of scoring goals at the highest level and will be looking to make an instant impact against Paris FC.

Kick-Off Time and Pre-Match Hopes

The match kicks off at 18:45 GMT, and Manchester City will be looking to make a strong start to their Champions League campaign. With a strong lineup and a talented player like Miedema in the team, they will be confident of taking all three points against Paris FC.

Post-Match Questions for Gareth Taylor

After the game, Manchester City manager Gareth Taylor is likely to face questions about Shaw’s visa issues and how they plan to overcome this setback. With the Champions League being one of the most competitive and prestigious tournaments in women’s football, every point counts, and Manchester City will need to be at their best to succeed.
