City dominated the first half and deservedly scored two goals through Chloe Kelly and Laura Coombs. However, the FA Cup winners struggled after the break and United produced an impressive second half display to earn a point.
Fellow USWNT internationals Christen Press (United), Samantha Mewis (City), and Rose Lavelle (City) also featured in the derby.
