AUSSIE TOUR | CITY 0-1 PSG | City narrowly defeat to PSG

Chance for Gareth Taylor's side to end their spell in Australia on a high. This should be some test this afternoon. This is a really exciting match for these players, for the City fans, whether they be in Australia or back here watching. This is a super exciting test against top European opposition. With many of France's most prominent clubs including Marseille, Nice and Lorient. In the build-up, the French internationals, they are strong, physical, powerful, technical players and I think this is a brilliant challenge for these Man City players. Absolutely, City look sharp in and around this area. Jess Park with a good first touch out of her feet creates the opportunity for that snapshot and it's a brilliant save. Buddy Shaw applying pressure here. Might be in and goes down. Referee has a look. Well, Buddy Shaw is adamant that should have been given in the same vein late in the game on Wednesday against Leicester City. Vademo and Midamar went down. That was a penalty. Don't know how the referee's not given it. She was, like you say, in a brilliant position to make the call. Only about five metres away but didn't give it. Strange decision. And Hasegawa again in space. Finding a good pocket to receive that ball. And Park trying to thread that one through for Buddy Shaw. Might be in here. Is that a bit short? I think it is. Buddy Shaw, in the end, could goalkeep it in the first instance and well held by Katarina Kucinich. Had it all to do. Buddy Shaw must have thought she was in. She's read it really well, Kandinek. Just that extra hard yard from Buddy Shaw. She couldn't quite get there. And then Mary Fowler on the follow-up. Would have liked to have seen her lift the ball over the goalkeeper. A good pre-season test between these two teams. Given away by the substitute. Now by the chance for Shaw. Angle may be a bit tight but forcing the save. Fowler with the tee-up to Buddy Shaw who did not need a second invite. Kandinek, the PSG goalkeeper, she's had a lot to do in this opening 25. Greenwood, space to move into. Into the feet of Buddy Shaw. Oh, that's a lovely through ball. Complete kill to Brown. Can we get the opening goal? Again, Kindronek. Just wondering whether she could have just tapped it sideways to Jess Parr for the tap-in. But she's done the right thing having a go. Almeida. To Dudek. Into a bit of Lucio. Gets a lovely turn. Has it all to do. Romelu Lucia. Antoinette Catoto just looking for the yard to create for herself. Curling effort brought by Greenwood. And on the follow-up to Khashui. Fancies her chances. Just wide of a target. And all of a sudden, PSG just coming into it. Really good play again from PSG. They're just starting to find their rhythm in this attacking third and it's Khashui. Alisa de Almeida. Gilbert. Lucia in the middle. Good play from Kirsten Kasperait. And certainly PSG moving through the gears towards the end of the first half. Sakina Khashui. Bodies forward here for PSG including Paulina Dudek. This time they hang the ball up for Yamashita. Couple of ricochets. Oh and it's just been put wide. I believe that might have been Paulina Dudek who's in there. Here we go again. Yamashita comes for it. In the end challenged by her own teammate Bonnie Shaw. And maybe just stretching there Paulina Dudek. Here we go again. It's the second attempt. Yeah, Alana Kennedy. In fact, some contact there wasn't there from Alana Kennedy. And Mary Fowler. Fowler. To Blinkyilder-Brown. Switch ball out to Lauren Hemp. She's trying to get bodies forward here. Hemp has just opened up for Lauren Hemp. But straight down the midriff of Katarzyna Kydzynek. You know what? Again, that bit of play from Man City is absolutely exceptional. There's the challenge that came in on Bonnie Shaw. It was certainly robust. Fowler with the reverse ball. Out to Blinkyilder-Brown. Just looked a little bit short. It was. And now PSG looking to spring the trap. They can come forward here. They do have plenty of options on as well. And that's a good challenge from Jess Clark. Has to do it again because PSG coming forward. Well, it's just gone into the side netting. It's a good counter attack from PSG. But self-inflicted by Manchester City. Here is Shaw. Oh, that's good play. They found the ball out to Hemp. Hemp looking for the cutback. Here's Shaw. Another chance and another save by Katarzyna Kydzynek. How many times have we said that this afternoon? And it's the goalkeeper again coming to PSG's rescue, is he? Tell you what, again from City. The forward play is unbelievable to watch. The pick out from Lauren Hemp. The cutback. Now Alejandri, who's on the turn. That's a good ball out to Chloe Kelly. Lauren Hemp taking up the position vacated by Buddy Shaw. Shot from Chloe Kelly. Didn't take a bit of a nick on the way through. But a first real sighter for Chloe Kelly as well. It doesn't need an invite. The benefit of her playing off the left. She's able to come inside on that right foot of hers. You know, she's got a brilliant technique. Out ball looking for Murphy, but PSG have won it back. Won't want to concede now, City. Haven't had the lion's share of the best chances and the possession in this game. Oh, it's going to be a penalty. Kirsten Kaspray with a challenge on Tara Alemi-Gilbert. Well, having not been given a penalty in the first half, City appear with every right to feel aggrieved here. There goes down under the challenge of Kirsten Kaspray. And the referee this time in no doubt, is he? Kaspray's definitely got a touch on her foot. We can see that on those images. But yeah, it doesn't seem fair at all. Jennifer Echegheny. Stopped by Chiara Keating. Can Chiara come to the rescue here for Gareth Taylor's side? Don't appear too happy with the decision. It's not going to change anything. No chance late in the game for Paris Saint-Germain. Here we go, referee set, happy. And PSG take the lead in the 87th minute. City now in a hurry to get this ball back. But they get the breakthrough, the French giants. Jennifer Echegheny. Looks like initially that Corbin Albert wanted to take it. But PSG get the breakthrough. Kelly with the lay-off. It's a par. It's the feet of Kelly. Kelly with the chance. Just wide of the target from Chloe Kelly. Gets enough conviction behind the strike. But drifting wide of the target from Chloe Kelly. Oh, she knows it was a chance. Well, there is the full-time whistle. But it's the French giants who are crowned the inaugural Perth International Football Cup winners. It has finished here at HBF Park. Manchester City 0, Paris Saint-Germain 1.
