    FT: Tottenham 1-0 West Ham

    Looking back at Martin Ho's time at his former club SK Brann, they kept more clean sheets (11) than any other team in the Norwegian Toppserien during his time in charge.

    He's brought that defensive solidity to Tottenham already, delivering a clean sheet on matchday one.

    Spurs previous 11 WSL clean sheets had come across 75 games.

    I know Leicester weren't up to much today but what a start to the new WSL season it's been for Man Utd.

    Four goals and a clean sheet before a tricky trip to London City Lionesses next week.

    Well, I can't think of a better way to announce yourself to your new club's fans than by scoring a hat-trick at the home of your arch-rivals on derby day.

    Take a bow Ornella Vignola, you'll forever be an Everton legend now, no matter how your career pans out from here.

    Tottenham 1-0 West Ham

    Beyond the eight added minutes we go at Brisbane Road after a few injury stoppages.

    It's getting into now or never territory for West Ham if they are to avoid an opening day defeat.

    Maisie Symonds drives her Brighton side forward again and hammers the ball across goal but no team-mate is following it in.

    An absolutely emphatic performance from Everton and Ornella Vignola as well.

    It's really confident. They finished the season last year and started in the exact same vein, looking very, very confident and a slightly new look Everton. It's a pleasure to see.

    And Liverpool will be very, very disappointed.

    Tottenham continue to run down the clock as they cling on to their narrow lead.

    After waving on the medics for a few minutes of treatment probably match winner Bethany England makes way for defender Charlotte Grant.

    Liverpool 1-4 Everton

    It's all over at Anfield.

    Well in all honesty it was pretty much over when Ornella Vignola secured her hat-trick on the 56th minute.

    Liverpool threatened to turn Merseyside red early doors but Everton responded emphatically to ensure it remains blue.

    Cries of "Shoot, shoot" can be heard from the home fans as Lena Gunning-Williams strides forward into the Spurs half.

    She's sensible though and opts to keep possession and run out the clock instead.

  17. YELLOW CARDpublished at 13:55 British Summer Time 7 September

    Brighton 0-0 Aston Villa

    Rachel Daly is the sixth Villa player to pick up a booking. This time for a late challenge.

  18. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 13:54 British Summer Time 7 September

    Brighton 0-0 Aston Villa

    Michelle Agyemang is given the ball in the box but decides to slow down and cut the ball back rather than taking a touch and having a go.

    That's her last of the action though as she's replaced by Carla Camacho.

  19. INJURY TIMEpublished at 13:54 British Summer Time 7 September

    Liverpool 1-4 Everton

    Four minutes of stoppage time to play at Anfield.

    Perhaps time for another Liverpool consolation goal but the blue dye is well and truly set on the score line here.

    Liverpool 1-4 Everton

    Everton continue to push on in search for goal number five. They're showing no mercy for their local rivals, exactly what derby day is all about.

    Toni Payne races towards the byline but her cross is cut out, then Maz Pacheco sends a ball forward in search for her third assist but it's overhit and flies into the Kop.
