Asisat Oshoala marked her Arsenal arrival with a goal to help them overcome Women's Super League One newcomers Reading.

Danielle Carter had an effort cleared off the line by Kirsty McGee, only for Dominique Janssen's low shot from outside the box to put the hosts ahead.

Oshoala, who hit the post in the first half, rounded keeper Grace Moloney to add Arsenal's second after the break.

Jade Boho Sayo reduced the arrears before Carter headed Arsenal's third.
