Plenty for both teams to reflect on after that match. It's been a disappointing start to the season from Liverpool - four defeats in a row in all competitions.

Big win for Manchester United. Manager Casey Stoney is celebrating with her coaching staff on the touchlines.

United celebrate after Lauren James and Katie Zelem's second-half goals saw them deservedly get off the mark today.

As for Liverpool, that's three league defeats from three so far, without them scoring a goal. Worrying times for them.

There it is, Manchester United have their first three points as a Women's Super League club.

Leah Galton is brought down in the area by Niamh Fahey and it's a clear penalty.

United are winding down the clock a little now and closing in on their first WSL victory.

The hosts' Leah Galton almost has the goal her fine display has deserved as she cuts in from the left once again, but this time she hits the side-netting from close range.

Goal-scorer Lauren James and Liverpool's Kirsty Linnett engage in a bit of pushing and shoving and they're both booked.

They have just announced today's attendance, which is 2,813. That beats the number against Arsenal earlier in the month.

A late throw of the dice from the visitors sees midfielder Ashley Hodson come on for Becky Jane.

Wow, it's astonishing this hasn't gone in. Hayley Ladd's right-wing cross is headed on to the bar at the far post by United's Leah Galton, and then Ella Toone hits the bar with the rebound too, with the goal gaping... What a chance to seal it. United can't believe they've not scored.

We're inside the final 10 minutes now and more urgency is needed from Liverpool. Former Birmingham City forward Kirsty Linnett is coming on to join their attack, replacing Amy Rodgers, as the rain pours down now.

Leah Galton has been very good this afternoon for the hosts, and she impresses again as she somehow, acrobatically, keeps the ball in play with the back of her heel in the air. The home fans like that.

More importantly, she's been a key threat down the hosts' left.

The hosts are bringing on Kirsty Hanson, as forward Jess Sigsworth goes off.

Now will we see Liverpool respond?

They're facing a third 1-0 league loss from three if it stays like this.

"Jepson what's the score?" the home fans chant after taking the lead. They have been teasing the Liverpool boss all afternoon.

Brutal.

United have dominated since the break... Can they find a way through?

Anke Preuss denies the home side again! This time the Liverpool keeper gets out well to block from Leah Galton, who was through one-on-one, inside the area.
