Shaw hat-trick heroics 'like watching video game'

BBC News

She's that good, her Manchester City team-mate Sam Coffey felt like she was watching a video game with Shaw the star of the show. I said earlier that I feel like I'm playing Fifa. You can score three goals like that in 20 minutes? the bewildered US international said after their emphatic 5-2 win over Spurs. It was actually three goals in 13 minutes - the fastest hat-trick in Women's Super League history - and City fans are so desperate to keep Shaw at the club that, each time she scored, they chanted sign her up on repeat.
