SHAW GOAL EARNS MAN CITY DRAW AGAINST REAL MADRID

THU 01 OCT 2026 W FOOTBALL

Khadija Shaw scored an equaliser for Manchester City Women in a 1-1 draw against Real Madrid in the Women's Champions League at the Joie Stadium, according to the BBC. Real Madrid had a late goal disallowed by the referee, a decision described as dramatic by Sky Sports. The result meant City took a point from the fixture rather than suffering defeat. Both outlets described the match as entertaining, with the scoreline finishing level after Shaw's goal cancelled out Real Madrid's opener.

The match formed part of the Women's Champions League group stage, played at Manchester City's Joie Stadium. Shaw, known as Bunny Shaw, provided the moment that kept City level against the Spanish side. Sky Sports reported that the disallowed Real Madrid goal came in the closing stages of the match, directly affecting the final outcome. The BBC's coverage noted the goal was "chalked off" following a review by the match officials, though neither source detailed the specific reason given for the decision.

The draw leaves both Manchester City and Real Madrid with a share of the points from this group-stage encounter. Neither report specified the clubs' resulting positions in the group standings or confirmed fixtures still to come. The BBC noted that match coverage was available only to UK users, while further reporting on the fixture's implications for both sides was not included in the available source material. Both clubs continue their Women's Champions League campaigns, with further group matches expected to follow.
