Kayleigh van Dooren and Kerstin Casparij both scored in the Women’s Champions League on Tuesday, as Roma beat Servette 2-1 and Manchester City won 4-1 away to Inter Milan.

Van Dooren opened the scoring for Roma, whose goal was their first in this season’s competition after three matches without one. She controlled the ball with her left foot before shooting right-footed past Dutch goalkeeper Jacintha Weimar.

Inter took the lead through Elisa Bartoli, but Aoba Fujino scored twice before half-time to put City ahead. City added two more goals after the break, including Casparij’s: the captain struck high into the net after receiving a pass from Samantha Coffey.
