A very even first period comes to an end at Walton Hall Park.

Nothing between the two sides.

Two minutes of injury time is shown.

Out of nowhere this game has sparked into life. I don't want half-time to come.

Jayne Ludlow
Wales manager on the BBC Red Button

"I'm gonna give Natasha Harding the benefit of the doubt here - I think it was a strike on goal.

"It's a great dink - I don't think the Everton goalkeeper was expecting it."

"It was a great pass from Claire Emslie - Reading weren't expecting it defensively.

"You question whether Grace Moloney could've done better with the first effort - the goal has come against the run of play but that's the beauty of the game."

Nooooo Brooke Chaplen!

The ex-Toffee drives forward for Reading. There's a simple pass on to put Royals forward Danielle Carter through on goal.

But Chaplen gets greedy and instead has a go from range...

It was always flying wide.

Better build-up play from Reading as full-back Emma Mitchell drives forward.

But the visitors can't get a good angle for a shot, with the ball eventually falling to Angharad James who skews the ball well wide.

Everton have a free-kick in a good position but nothing comes of it.

And their star player Hayley Raso has just blazed a shot well wide.

This game has stalled a little. Needs a bit of quality.

It's fair to say Reading have definitely stepped up in the last 10 minutes.

A very even game right now but there's been few clear-cut chances.

Remember you can watch this game on the BBC Red Button and iPlayer.

Rare sight at goal for Reading as a short corner routine falls to Jess Fishlock.

The Wales midfielder has a cross-shot which goes through a wall of players and is somehow kept out by the feet of Everton keeper Sandy MacIver.

A very good save in these windy conditions.

Everton are unbeaten at home in their last three and could jump up to second in the table with a win here today.

And they're on the front foot again as Hayley Raso goes through but can't get the ball under control.

Reading keeper Grace Moloney is quick off her line to dive on it. Good awareness from the stopper.

Reading look like they're setting up differently than in their past few games.

It'll be interesting to see how this animates as the game goes on.

They've clearly seen some weaknesses in Everton in areas and are looking to exploit it.

Everton keep knocking the ball around in Reading's half.

Scotland international Claire Emslie has a go from range for the Toffees, but her effort deflects harmlessly wide.

Nothing comes from the corner.

It looks very wet and windy at Walton Hall Park. Not ideal conditions.

Both sides are playing some nice short passes on the floor. Everton are marginally on top.

Inside the opening 40 seconds. What an opportunity.

A low cross bobbles all the way through to Everton's Nicoline Sorensen but the forward smashes her effort over the bar.

Big chance that.

Here we go then, match three on this bumper day of WSL football gets going.

Good afternoon Tom! Two big games done, two more on the way.

Less than 120 seconds until Everton v Reading kicks off.

Thanks for your company for those first two games of the day - I'll now leave you in the very capable hands of my colleague Josef Rindl - good afternoon, Josef!

It's a third win of the season for Carla Ward's Birmingham and they go up to sixth in the table. Newly-promoted Villa stay 10th.
