Khadija Shaw struck her first Women's Super League hat-trick of the season as Manchester City returned to the top of the table with a 5-0 win against West Ham.

Her impressive haul came days after she surprisingly missed out on the 26-player FifPro Women's World XI shortlist, and continues an impressive run of scoring in every league game she has started this season.

After Shaw's first-half opener, City ran riot after the break as Aoba Fujino and Iman Beney each scored their first league goals of the season.

The win returns City to the top of the Women's Super League table as title rivals Chelsea were held by Everton at Stamford Bridge.
