Beth England scores only goal as Tottenham edge past LeicesterElisabeth Terland’s late strike earns Brighton win over Leicester
Arsenal produced an impressive second-half display to turn things around against Aston Villa as they tightened their grip on third place in the Women’s Super League. Ebony Salmon opened the scoring against the run of play for the hosts but it would be their only shot of the match.
Arsenal came out firing after the break, eventually enjoying 37 shots in the match. Victoria Pelova brought the Gunners level before Lotte Wubben-Moy headed home a second. Stina Blackstenius netted a third, despite a strong suspicion of offside and handball from the Swedish striker but the officials noticed neither, much to Villa’s chagrin. The result means Arsenal are eight points clear of fourth-placed Liverpool with five games to go, and should qualify for the Champions League.
