Man City goal machine Bunny Shaw reveals Usain Bolt advice that helped Jamaican striker 'get the better of defenders'

Tottenham Hotspur Women

Manchester City Women

The Jamaican striker currently leads the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/hat-trick-hero-bunny-shaw-golden-boot-wsl-title-markers-jamaican-brilliant-treble-man-city-win-everton/blt9b6a3344526397ac" target="_blank">Golden Boot race</a> in the <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/wsl/6vq8j5p3av14nr3iuyi4okhjt" target="_blank">Women's Super League</a> with nine goals in as many games, and was named the Player of the Month for December. Now, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/player/khadija-shaw/cm84oje8txj7m34zuhhv68ct1" target="_blank">Shaw</a> has explained how Olympic champion and compatriot Bolt has helped her this season.

WHAT HAPPENED?

<a href="https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/man-city-star-khadija-shaw-28433853" target="_blank">Shaw said</a>: "He's [Bolt] always been supportive. We speak about my progress. We have a good relationship. When he's in town he lets me know and we will link up. In certain aspects, if I'm struggling, whether that means strength work, I'll reach out to him. We had a really good conversation in March and he told me some things I could work on where I could get an edge over defenders, and stuff like that. It's just the little things, and he always says the little things matter the most."

WHAT SHAW SAID

Shaw has been a goalscoring machine ever since she joined <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/team/manchester-city-women/36tr17foeaf9ejjmt2txuoy3y" target="_blank">City</a> in 2021. Last season she scored 20 goals in 22 WSL games (31 in all competitions), and this year she is aiming to fire Gareth Taylor's side to a first WSL title since 2016. City currently find themselves second in the WSL table, three points behind leaders <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/team/chelsea-fc-women/spi3g782q7m4evjxn1sv6cfa" target="_blank">Chelsea</a>.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

After enjoying a winter break, Shaw and her City team-mates will return to action on Sunday when they take on Durham in the fourth round of the FA Cup. Their WSL title charge will resume with a home clash against Liverpool next weekend.
