Manchester City head coach Gareth Taylor praised Chloe Kelly after the striker marked her return to the starting line-up with a stirring display in the Citizens 4-1 Vitality Women’s FA Cup semi-final victory over West Ham.
The 24-year-old suffered an ACL injury last May and only returned to action two weeks ago as a substitute in a Barclays FA WSL meeting between the two teams, a match City won 2-0. Kelly and Ellen White both scored in the first half to give them a well-deserved lead at the Chigwell Construction Stadium.
“It was a good performance against a tough team,” said Taylor. “I was happy with elements of our play and we scored some good goals.

The Hammers threatened at times in the second half, though Lauren Hemp’s 66th minute strike — followed by a second goal in added time — sealed a spot in the final for the Citizens.
Taylor was also full of praise for Hemp, who starred
