    Aaaand breathe.

    That's all from us after a dramatic night in the WSL.

    You can read the match reports from Manchester City's win over Reading and Chelsea's thumping of Everton now.

    There's no WSL action this weekend so we'll be back next week for more Wednesday night drama.

    See you then.

    West Ham 1-1 Man United

    And that's that. A dramatic end to what had been a relatively dull game.

    This could prove pivotal in Manchester United's hopes of Champions League football as Manchester City's win tonight takes them within three points with a game in hand.

    The corner results in ANOTHER corner but that one is eventually cleared away. Mackenzie Arnold will just take her time with this goal kick to see out the game.

    West Ham 1-1 Man United

    Manchester United have a corner in the last seconds of this game. Katie Zelem stands over it and it's a dangerous one. There's a real scramble at the near post and it's gone behind for another corner.

    GOAL - West Ham 1-1 Man Utdpublished at 21:24 Greenwich Mean Time 16 March 2022

    Grace Fisk (92 mins)

    LATE DRAMA.

    That is a cruel blow to Manchester United's hopes of Champions League football next season.

    Katerina Svitkova swings in the corner and Grace Fisk rises highest to head onto the post and it ricochets into the net.

    West Ham have defended resolutely and they probably deserve that reward.

    West Ham 0-1 Man United

    Kate Longhurst sends a long ball in to Katerina Svitkova and that was a really good opportunity for the Czech midfielder to level proceedings late in the game. She heads it straight into the advertising boards - should've done better.

    Nearly! Adriana Leon tries her best to get on the end of a cross but it's goes straight through to Mary Earps who clears away.

    I expect we'll have a few minutes of added time after that injury to Earps.

    Mary Earps has been down for a couple of minutes and looks like she is receiving a bit of strapping to her right thigh.

    It didn't look like there was much in the initial challenge. She will carry on, though.

    This would be a big three points in Manchester United's bid for Champions League football. If they can hold on, of course.

    Just 10 minutes to go in London and it's not all that exciting.

    West Ham are managing to hold Manchester United to just the one goal but there's not been much sign of an equaliser or a follow-up.

    Everton 0-3 Chelsea

    Job done for Chelsea.

    Three lovely first-half goals was damage done for the defending champions and Everton didn't really have a sniff.

    Chelsea just seeing this one out. This win arguably makes them title favourites, they are two points behind Arsenal with a game in hand.

    Lovely little dinked ball into the box but Yui Hasegawa can't get enough power on the shot and United's keeper Mary Earps gathers with ease.

    Man City 2-0 Reading

    Ooooh. Jess Park lays off the ball beautifully for Georgia Stanway and she fires a low drive towards the far corner and it looks like it's just going to nestle into the corner but it's a whisker wide.
