Manchester City Women cruised to a 5-0 win over LSK Kvinner in the first leg of their Champions League last 16 tie in Norway.

Jane Ross powered home two headers in four minutes to effectively seal the contest after earlier goals from Demi Stokes, Isobel Christiansen and Claire Emslie.

Their victory maintained City's 100% start to the new season and built on their 6-0 aggregate win over Austrian side St Polten in the previous round.

After a subdued start, Stokes opened the scoring for City with a fierce, low drive on 26 minutes, and the goal kicked the visitors into gear.

Christiansen double their advantage from the penalty spot just before half-time before substitute Emslie made it three with a spectacular long-range effort.
