WSL: City go top, London City thrash Tottenham
"Shaw's thumping effort, after Everton striker Kelly Gago had cancelled out Vivianne Miedema's opener, secured City their seventh win in eight league games this season and lifted them one point clear of overnight leaders Chelsea. The visitors were made to dig deep for their victory as Everton pressed for a second equaliser, with Ornella Vignola's shot hitting a post and City goalkeeper Ayaka Yamashita producing a superb late save to deny substitute Hikaru Kitagawa."
"Freya Godfrey scored twice for London City Lionesses as they beat Tottenham 4-2 at Hayes Lane to notch their fourth league win of the season. Godfrey's early opener was cancelled out by Spurs forward Cathinka Tandberg's first-half penalty and, after Nikita Parris had restored the home team's lead, the visitors hit back again through Eveliina Summanen. Amanda Nildén's own goal in the 81st minute put the Lionesses in front for a third time and Godfrey's second three minutes later made sure of the triumph."
"Rosa Kafaji's stoppage-time goal snatched Brighton a 1-1 draw against Liverpool at St Helens Stadium and denied Gareth Taylor's side their first win of the campaign. Beata Olsson gave Liverpool a first-half lead and, after both sides hit the woodwork -- Carla Camacho's header for Brighton and Sam Kerr's 30-yard effort for the Reds -- Kafaji equalised in the third minute of added time."
Manchester City moved top of the Women's Super League after Khadija Shaw's second-half header completed a 2-1 win at Everton. Vivianne Miedema opened the scoring before Kelly Gago levelled, and City survived late pressure with a post strike and a superb Ayaka Yamashita save. London City Lionesses beat Tottenham 4-2 as Freya Godfrey scored twice and Amanda Nildén's own goal proved decisive. Brighton salvaged a 1-1 draw with Rosa Kafaji's stoppage-time equaliser after Beata Olsson had given Liverpool the lead. West Ham were held 1-1 by Leicester when Shannon O'Brien struck in added time.
