Kirsty Hanson had put Aston Villa ahead in the 21th minute with a bullet header from a corner.
Deyna Castellanos equalised for Manchester City after getting on the end of a Lauren Hemp cross and scoring a looping header.

As well as beating them in the FA Cup, Aston Villa have taken four points off Manchester City in the league
Aston Villa have never won the FA Cup but will now feel they have a great opportunity after stunning City.
Daly's superb form continues this season as Villa look to upset the Women's Super League big three of Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester City.
The Lionesses forward had a first-time effort brilliantly saved by Ellie Roebuck and her spectacular effort from around 30 yards led to the corner from which Villa scored the opener.
Villa, who defeated West Ham last weekend, sit fifth in the WSL and are unbeaten in 2023.
They will find out their FA Cup semi-final opponents in Tuesday's draw, which will take place on Morning Live on BBC One.
