    Good clearance from Laia Aleixandri to stop Caitlin Foord's cross reaching Victoria Pelova, who was waiting behind Alexiandri to take the opportunity.

    Arsenal really have to up the ante if they are to get something out of this game.

    Yui Hasegawa in midfield is finding the chance to dictate the play far too easily [for Man City].

    Good save Ellie Roebuck.

    Arsenal starting to find their way into this game now.

    Caitlin Foord chips the ball over to Stina Blackstenius and Roebuck comes right out of her goal with a brave save to prevent what was a very good opportunity.

    Roebuck needs a bit of treatment after that, it was a strong tackle. She looks OK to carry on.

    OUCH.

    Leah Williamson goes for goal from distance and it's a heck of a thwack. Alex Greenwood takes one for the team and takes the shot straight to the head.

    She's on the deck with the impact but she's up straight away.

    Tottenham caretaker Vicky Jepson has a big job on her hands.

    Spurs are only five points clear of the drop and have lost 10 of their last 11 WSL games.

    Jepson said: “Target number one is to stay in the WSL, that has to be the thing and we’ll do that by accumulating more points along the way in these next six games that we’ve got, but we want to finish as high as we possibly can.

    "We won’t just settle for picking up points here and there. Finishing as high as we can is always going to be our objective and all the players would say the same.

    “Number one priority is to stay in the league and we should do with the quality players we have, as long as they continue to work hard around the moments of the game when they turn up to play on a matchday.”

    We're back underway at Meadow Park.

    Big tackle from Leah Williamson on Yui Hasegawa and Arsenal have a chance on the break.

    Caitlin Foord gets away down the left but Esme Morgan forces her right down to the by line and it's out for a goal kick.

    While we have a break in play, have a watch of the opener from Bunny Shaw.

    Lovely stuff.

    Sabrina D'Angelo is on the deck requiring a bit of treatment.

    There doesn't seem to be a great deal wrong with her but the Arsenal players have run over to Jonas Eidevall to try and get a bit of tactical information on board.

    Bit cheeky.

    They've got to get [Victoria] Pelova into this game.

    They need to get her on the ball and get her running at the Man City defence, get her using her pace.

    Arsenal get a rare opportunity to come forward. Victoria Pelova does well down the right-hand side, she takes a bit of a nick but referee says play on.

    She plays the ball through to Caitlin Foord who is pulled for offside.

    Credit to Laura Coombs, she's worked really hard to get back in the England squad.

    A very functional player who quite often goes unnoticed. Very efficient in what she does, so I'm pleased for her.

    Good save.

    Bunny Shaw puts Leah Williamson under pressure and as Williamson attempts to clear it ricochets off Shaw, who nips the ball away and goes for goal.

    Good save from Sabrina D'Angelo at the near post.

    Dangerous stuff from Arsenal.

    You've got to say it was a fantastic build-up. All the way through the final third, across the middle and then out wide. And Bunny Shaw is where she needs to be in the centre of the goal.

    Perhaps Lotte Wubben-Moy will be disappointed with that, could she have gotten closer to the striker there?

    The level Shaw is playing at, she needs to be locked on tighter than that. But what a finish! Great header.

  15. YELLOW CARDpublished at 12:40 British Summer Time 2 April 2023

    Arsenal 0-1 Man City

    Hmmm, not a good start for Arsenal.

    Katie McCabe is shown a very early yellow card for taking a throw-in but bouncing it straight off Chloe Kelly's head and giving the referee some grief, too.

    We're less than 10 minutes in and she's already going to have to be careful.

    City looking well on top after that early opener. Dominating the ball with a high tempo.

    Arsenal were caught napping a bit for the goal but hopefully that has woken them up a bit.

    GOAL - Arsenal 0-1 Man Citypublished at 12:35 British Summer Time 2 April 2023

    Bunny Shaw (4 mins)

    What a start for the visitors!

    Some lovely passing play from Manchester City in the build-up and it comes out wide to Chloe Kelly who whips one in and who else is there to head home but Bunny Shaw.

    A powerful header for her 16th goal of the WSL season.

    At times last season and also at the start of this season, there were mutterings around the club calling for Gareth Taylor's head.

    Going on a 14-match winning streak has well and truly silenced those.

    Leah Williamson is playing in the central midfield position we have seen her occupy a few times this season. In the absence of Kim Little her services are required there.
