  1. Man Utd 0-2 Chelsea

    Chelsea are fulfilling their end of the deal so far.

    Manchester United haven't looked all that threatening. It's difficult to imagine Emma Hayes' side throwing away this lead.

    Emma Hayes, Manager of Chelsea, looks on during the Barclays Women´s Super League match between Manchester United and Chelsea FC at Old Traffordgett

    This isn’t a surprise. It’s a Chelsea team who need to win against a United team who don’t have anything to play for. Chelsea just have far better individuals and a far better team, and that’s what they’ve payed a lot for. United have achieved their goal for this season last week. 5 titles in a row for Chelsea really just shows us this league isn’t as competitive as we think.

  3. CLOSE!

    Aston Villa 0-1 Man City

    Almost two for Manchester City as Kerstin Casparij cuts it back for Mary Fowler but the Australian misses it, Lauren Hemp is steaming in at the back post but Sarah Mayling makes a brilliant block.

  4. Leicester 0-1 Liverpool

    Leicester have come back into this one since going behind.

    It's been an even contest since the goal but Liverpool have just come close to doubling their lead.

    Good work by Marie-Therese Hobinger but her goal-bound shot is blocked by CJ Bott.

  5. Tottenham 1-0 West Ham

    Martha Thomas nearly makes it two for Tottenham, but Mackenzie Arnold is there to make an excellent stop.

    Her low drive after an Ashleigh Neville ball over the top is kept out by Arnold's outstretched leg - but then the offside flag is raised anyway.

  6. Aston Villa 0-1 Man City

    Jess Park tries to play in Lauren Hemp but her swinging ball has a bit too much on it and the England winger can't quite get there.

  7. Arsenal 2-0 Brighton

    It's becoming comfortable for Arsenal now.

    They're having a lot of success with their dribbles around the Brighton area.

    Beth Mead twice gets behind the visitors' defence but can't find any of her teammates.

  8. Man Utd 0-2 Chelsea

    Natasha Dowie
    Reading and England striker on the BBC Radio 5 Live

    Right now Chelsea are in complete control and they will be getting told what's happening at the City game.

    They can dictate their play through that result also.

  9. Here's the top of the table as it stands. We're back to where we were at the start of the day, with Chelsea champions on goal difference.

    City need to score four more (if Chelsea don't score or concede) to win the league.

    If goal difference is the same then Chelsea win the league on goals scored.

  10. Aston Villa 0-1 Man City

    A glorious ball from the middle of the park from Laura Blindkilde Brown to find Jess Park.

    Park bears down on goal but her right-footed effort is tame and saved Anna Leat.

    GOAL - Arsenal 2-0 Brighton

    Alessia Russo (24 mins)

    A huge mistake.

    Kim Little and Alessia Russo press as Brighton look to play the ball out of a dangerous area.

    Brighton completely mess it up and the ball ends up at Russo's feet.

    There's no need for a good finish this time - all she has to do is take a touch to round the keeper and tap into an open net.

  12. Aston Villa 0-1 Manchester City

    Emma Smith
    BBC Sport at Villa Park

    One down, several to go for City.

    They have raised their tempo since Laura Coombes had to go off injured - I expect a message has been passed on from the bench.

    City have nothing to lose now, they have to go for goals.

  13. goal

    GOAL - Bristol City 0-2 Everton

    Sara Holmgaard (23 mins)

    Everton are threatening to run away with this one.

    Katja Snoejis turns provider this time, muscling Brooke Aspin off the ball when the defender looked set to deal with a simple ball down the Everton left.

    Snoejis got into the box down the byeline and then cut it back for Sara Holmgaard to side-foot into the far corner.

  14. 'Flawless technique from Fowler'

    Aston Villa 0-1 Manchester City

    Rachel Brown-Finnis
    Ex-England goalkeeper on BBC Two

    Exactly what Manchester City needed.

    Lauren Hemp picks out her centre forward teammate Mary Fowler, one touch to set herself, the ball doesn't touch the ground before she hits it straight into the bottom corner. Hits it as cleanly as possible.

    Flawless technique, fantastic.

  15. Tottenham 1-0 West Ham

    That could've gone anywhere. Celin Bizet twists and turns to beat Kirsty Smith on the edge of the West Ham box.

    Her cross is met by Irons defender Amber Tysiak and it narrowly misses ending up in her own net.

  16. goal

    GOAL - Aston Villa 0-1 Man City

    Mary Fowler (21 mins)

    There it is!

    Lauren Hemp does so well on the left-hand side and fizzes the ball in with her right foot.

    Mary Fowler picks it up, turns and smashes into the back of the net.

    A great finish and that gets Manchester City off the mark at Villa Park and in this race for the title. One down, four to go.

  17. HITS THE WOODWORK

    Arsenal 1-0 Brighton

    Brighton nearly hit back!

    Elisabeth Terland slows down her run on the edge of the Arsenal box before sending a strike towards goal.

    It bounces off Steph Catley's leg and strikes the crossbar.

  18. HITS THE WOODWORK

    Man Utd 0-2 Chelsea

    Opportunity for Manchester United to pull one back as Maya Le Tissier heads off the bar.

    A first real chance for Marc Skinner's side.

  19. HITS THE WOODWORK

    Aston Villa 0-0 Man City

    Ooooh. The closest Manchester City have gone. Alex Greenwood loops in the cross and Alanna Kennedy heads it straight onto the bar.

  20. Man Utd 0-2 Chelsea

    Emma Sanders
    BBC Sport at Old Trafford

    "Ole, ole, ole, ole, Chelsea, Chelsea," sing the away fans. They have been going non-stop since the first minute.

    United fans haven't had much to cheer about at all.

    Their wounds are made worse by a chant a few moments afterwards - "Chelsea, champions".
