  1. goal

    GOAL - Man Utd 0-4 Chelseapublished at 15:48 British Summer Time 18 May

    Mayra Ramirez (45 mins)

    Well it's a brilliant finish from Mayra Ramirez but she's simply allowed to walk through the Manchester United defence.

    She saunters through and smacks into the top corner.

    Chelsea are running riot at Old Trafford. Dream land for Emma Hayes.

  2. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:48 British Summer Time 18 May

    Arsenal 2-0 Brighton

    Arsenal take a comfortable lead into the break.

  3. GREAT SAVE!published at 15:47 British Summer Time 18 May

    Leicester 0-1 Liverpool

    Leicester come close to an equaliser!

    Jenna Clark is booked for a foul on Jutta Rantala on the edge of the box. Rantala steps up to take the free-kick.

    It's a good hit but Rachael Laws gets down sharply to make the save.

    Aston Villa 0-1 Man City

    City have had their chances. They could have scored a couple more. But without Khadija Shaw they are struggling for an outlet.

    Arsenal 2-0 Brighton

    Sabrina D'Angelo made that hard for herself.

    Elisabeth Terland sends a drive towards the Arsenal goalkeeper but she doesn't catch it immediately, instead bouncing the ball down first. Thankfully for the hosts she manages to recover.

    Mayra Ramirez is having a sensational game.

    Sam Kerr is a big fan. She was on her feet with her arms in the air in the directors box celebrating.

    The Chelsea fans to our right chant "we want four"!

    Aston Villa 0-1 Man City

    Here's how Mary Fowler put Manchester City ahead.

    They now have an absolutely mammoth task ahead.

    GOAL - Man Utd 0-3 Chelseapublished at 15:44 British Summer Time 18 May

    Sjoeke Nusken (43 mins)

    Well you have to think that could very well be that.

    Mayra Ramirez does brilliantly down the right-hand side, she darts down the flank and cuts it back from the byline and Sjoeke Nusken will not score an easier goal than that.

    She taps into an empty net from the middle of the area.

    Tottenham 1-0 West Ham

    After that moment of worry normal service resumes for Spurs.

    Celin Bizet has caused a lot of problems with her jinking runs and she gets behind the West Ham back line again, but she's unable to provide the ball to any of her teammates.

    Man Utd 0-2 Chelsea

    Emma Sanders
    BBC Sport at Old Trafford

    We got 40 minutes of Mayra Ramirez and Catarina Macario playing together up front and it was brilliant.

  11. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 15:43 British Summer Time 18 May

    Man Utd 0-2 Chelsea

    Chelsea make an early change as Catarina Macario makes way for Sjoeke Nusken.

  12. CLOSE!published at 15:42 British Summer Time 18 May

    Tottenham 1-0 West Ham

    Rebecca Spencer is forced to make her first significant save for Spurs.

    Vivianne Asseyi connects with a cross and prods an effort towards goal, but Spencer springs off her line and manages to push her shot away.

  13. Chelsea 'mentality monsters'published at 15:40 British Summer Time 18 May

    Man Utd 0-2 Chelsea

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

    I can't tell you how hard it is to win this league, never mind back to back, never mind potentially five times in a row.

    I can't speak highly enough of this Chelsea team and their mentality. They are mentality monsters. They really are - like Manchester City in the men's game.

    If they do achieve this, the fifth time in a row, I don't think that will ever be done again by any team.

    Aston Villa 0-1 Man City

    Emma Smith
    BBC Sport at Villa Park

    In mid-week, Arsenal's men needed help from local rivals Tottenham to boost their Premier League title challenge. They didn't get it.

    Today, Manchester City needed help from local rivals Man Utd to boost their WSL title challenge. So far, same story.

  15. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 15:39 British Summer Time 18 May

    Aston Villa 0-1 Man City

    Good hit from Laura Blindkilde Brown. A lovely ball from Mary Fowler and the former Aston Villa player does well to strike on the half-volley but it hammers off the bar.

    City could really do with another before half time to keep the spirits up.

  16. Postpublished at 15:37 British Summer Time 18 May

    Tottenham 1-0 West Ham

    Lovely save! Mackenzie Arnold makes a good stop for West Ham once again as she dives down to her left to push a Martha Thomas effort around the post.

  17. 'Not seen too much of Kelly, Hemp and Park'published at 15:36 British Summer Time 18 May

    Aston Villa 0-1 Man City

    Rachel Brown-Finnis
    Ex-England goalkeeper on BBC Two

    We've not really seen Chloe Kelly and Lauren Hemp picking up the ball and driving into the box and taking on players.

    Yes they can go out wide and they have the speed to do it and capacity to whip the balls in but they are so dangerous driving at players and forcing them into errors. Jess Park needs to get herself in the game more as well, she can be key for them.

  18. PENALTY APPEALpublished at 15:35 British Summer Time 18 May

    Leicester 0-1 Liverpool

    The Liverpool supporters are not happy as Emma Koivisto, in her last match for the club, appears to be brought down inside the penalty area by Julie Thibaud.

    The referee disagrees, though, and awards a goal kick.

    Chelsea are grabbing all the attention so far. They are just more active. The fans are louder, the staff are more animated, the players are communicating constantly and Mayra Ramirez is putting on a show.

    United just look... flat.

    Arsenal 2-0 Brighton

    Alessia Russo wants her hat-trick.

    She's in behind after beating Guro Bergsvand with a good bit of footwork, but her effort lacks the right placement and she fires psat the far post.
