WSL wrap: Liverpool and Leicester maintain winning starts

Liverpool and Leicester maintained their winning starts in the Women's Super League on Sunday, while Guro Reiten snatched a point for Chelsea deep into stoppage in a controversial clash with Manchester City.

City took an early lead through Chloe Kelly’s deflected strike in the seventh minute but the game changed when Alex Greenwood was sent off late in the first half, with the captain shown a second yellow card for supposedly time wasting over a free-kick less than 30 seconds after it had been awarded.

Team-mate Lauren Hemp also saw red in the 81st minute for a second bookable offence – among 10 yellow cards shown to players by Emily Heaslip – but Gareth Taylor’s side came close to taking a remarkable victory before Reiten bundled the ball home in the sixth minute of added time.

Sam Kerr then hit a post five minutes later, the third time Chelsea had struck the frame of the goal in the match, before the points were shared.

Leicester made it two wins from two to start the season as they hung on to edge out Everton 1-0.

Lena Petermann got her second of the season by lofting the ball over Emily Ramsey in the 70th minute, before Everton had a potential equaliser ruled out late on when Emma Bissell was ruled offside.

Robert Vilahamn got his first win in charge of Tottenham as they saw off promoted Bristol City 3-1.

First-half goals from Olga Ahtinen, Martha Thomas and Eveliina Summanen put the hosts in control at Brisbane Road, with Amalie Thestrup pulling one back from the penalty spot after the break.

They were Tottenham’s first points of the season after last week’s defeat at Chelsea, while Bristol City, captained by Ireland's Megan Connolly, remain without a point from their opening two games.
