More frustration for Everton as a promising one-two between Lucy Hope and Heather Payne ends in a cross landing hamslessly into the arms of Janina Leitzig.

CJ Bott strides forward again for the home side taking on defender after defender as she advances towards the Everton goal.

She reaches the edge of the D before Honoka Hayashi intervenes and earns a free kick for her side to dispell the danger.

Leicester are growing in confidence again after spending a period on the back foot.

Shana Chossenotte's cross reaches CJ Bott in the middle but she skews her shot into the air and Megan Finnigan thumps it clear.

The best we've seen from the hosts for a long time - Marie-Therese Höbinger heads it into the path of Olivia Smith and her shot from the angle finds the side netting.

Straight from the restart the hosts almost double their lead.

Nicole Momiki slides a sumptuous through ball in behind for Deanne Rose to chase.

She latches onto it, dances past Justine Vanhaevermaet and into the box before firing a low shot which is denied by the on-rushing Courtney Brosnan.

Into the last 15 minutes in this one. Liverpool remain short of attacking ideas and intent.

We've just got a brief stoppage in play as Leicester keeper Janina Leitzig has gone down asking for treatment.

Both managers have taken the opportunity to call their sides over for a quick chat.

Hammers captain Katrina Gorry chances her arm from a long way out but it's always rising and ends up in the stands.

More patient play from Everton, passing side to back to side and back again. They are just lacking that spark at the moment.

This will suit Leicester though, they have the lead and will be happy to wait for their chance to break.

One of the finest things you'll ever see on any football pitch ever...

This is your official alert for the "outfield player in goal" klaxon. Keeper Rachael Laws is back on her feet and playing for Liverpool but it's the second game in a row where she has needed treatment. Reserve stopper Teagan Micah is injured and Eva Spencer is with England's Under-17s.

By all accounts Mia Enderby would go in if needed, but she's been subbed!

What will caretaker boss Renée Slegers make of the opening 25 minutes from Arsenal? They have been in control but look really shot shy. They do have a load of attacking options on the bench of course.

Everton have enjoyed the majority of the possession since going behind but they have yet to make much of it.

They've put together some nice passing patterns but their efforts in the final third have been found wanting.

Liverpool 1-1 Crystal Palace

One to watch - Liverpool goalkeeper Rachael Laws has had to have some treatment twice in this second half. Looks like a muscle problem or cramp but she's carrying on for now.

So nearly the opener for Arsenal! They work it nicely, playing in Emily Fox on the underlap and she pokes it goalwards, tries to put it through the legs of Kinga Szemik like Juliano Belletti all those years ago but the keeper does really well to shut it out.

Another awkward moment in the Everton defence as Megan Finnigan dawdles on the ball and is dispossessed.

Leicester players are slow to get forward in support of Ruby Mace though and the visitors recover to clear their lines.

Ooo an awkward moment for Everton keeper Courtney Brosnan after a cross is headed goalwards by Shana Chossenotte.

Brosnan does well to track the ball through the glaring sun to catch it just under her own crossbar.

Twenty minutes in and we haven't had a shot on target yet - but that is close! Alessia Russo rolls defender Shelina Zadorsky, works the ball into space and fires low and hard but wide!

Liverpool 1-1 Crystal Palace

It remains a gorgeous-looking day in St Helens but I'm about 40 minutes away and the immense wind and rain has just returned to me. So it could be on the way.

A Crystal Palace goal certainly looks on the way as only a brave block prevents Annabel Blanchard from turning in from close range.

Oh so close to a leveller.

The free kick is set into the back post to Lucy Hope who nods the ball back into the middle.

Captain Megan Finnigan smashes a volley at goal but is denied by Janina Leitzig's sharp low save.
