Alexia Putellas begins WSL ride as London City outclass Manchester United

Alexia Putellas, the two-time Ballon d'Or winner and former Barcelona captain, made her Women's Super League debut captaining London City Lionesses in a season opener played in Bromley. The club, which evolved from Millwall Lionesses approximately seven years ago, secured a dominant win over Manchester United in the WSL's opening round. Putellas, wearing the No 11 shirt, drew significant attention as she adjusts to playing with teammates who lack the deeply ingrained tactical system she was accustomed to at Barcelona.
