    No conviction behind Chelsea.

    You normally see it from them, but we have seen it from Arsenal today.

    My Player of the Match is Alessia Russo. She has had a great game; her work rate off the ball has been great for Arsenal today.

    Liverpool 0-0 Bristol City

    Jamie-Lee Napier beats Emma Koivisto out wide and sends a tempting delivery into the box but Ffion Morgan can't get to the ball in time.

    The first chance Bristol City have had in a while.

  3. INJURY TIMEpublished at 14:23 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Arsenal 4-1 Chelsea

    There will be EIGHT minutes of added time at the end of this match.

    EIGHT. Poor Chelsea.

  4. YELLOW CARDpublished at 14:21 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Liverpool 0-0 Bristol City

    That's a booking for each team now. Liverpool captain Taylor Hinds is penalised after tugging Jamie-Lee Napier's shirt.

  5. Postpublished at 14:21 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Arsenal 4-1 Chelsea

    Another opportunity for Chelsea wasted and immediately Arsenal are on the counter-attack.

    It looks like a golden opportunity as Chloe Lacasse gets round Jess Carter to find Caitlin Foord but Kadeisha Buchanan is there to make the block.

    Foord had just strayed offside, anyway.

    Brighton 0-0 Leicester

    20 minutes or so into this game and while Leicester have by far dominated the game in terms of possession, Brighton are looking so, so dangerous on the counter.

    The home side are just missing composure on the final ball, but the chances are certainly there for them if they can get that right.

  7. Postpublished at 14:20 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Liverpool 0-0 Bristol City

    That's better from Liverpool. Fuka Nagano switches the play and sends a delivery towards Shanice van de Sanden on the wing but it's knocked out of play by Naomi Layzell.

  8. Postpublished at 14:19 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Brighton 0-0 Leicester

    The free kick is whipped into the back post by Maisie Symonds but neither Brighton player running into the box can get that crucial finishing touch as the ball drifts harmlessly behind.

  9. 'One of the easiest chances Arsenal have had'published at 14:19 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Arsenal 4-1 Chelsea

    Gilly Flaherty
    Former Chelsea and England defender on BBC Two

    You could argue that is one of the easiest chances Arsenal have had.

    Stina Blackstenius is trying to curl it in the top corner and does not wrap her foot around it enough.

  10. YELLOW CARDpublished at 14:19 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Arsenal 4-1 Chelsea

    Victoria Pelova is the latest name in the referee's book after wrestling with Erin Cuthbert.

    That's five yellows for Arsenal.

  11. YELLOW CARDpublished at 14:18 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Brighton 0-0 Leicester

    Josie Green receives the first booking of the game and rightly so.

    She cynically pulls down Pauline Bremer who had beaten the offside trap and was breaking in behind.

    Brighton players are left feeling dually aggrieved as Bremer had played the ball into two players in space on the edge of the box.

  12. Postpublished at 14:18 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Arsenal 4-1 Chelsea

    Brilliant opportunity for Stina Blackstenius, she finds herself in acres of space and the goal at her mercy but she skews her shot miles wide. Should've done better.

  13. Postpublished at 14:17 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Liverpool 0-0 Bristol City

    Olivia Clark is back to her feet and the game continues.

    Liverpool haven't done much to trouble Bristol City so far – in fact it's the league's bottom-placed side who've had more of the ball in the opposition third.

  14. YELLOW CARDpublished at 14:17 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Arsenal 4-1 Chelsea

    Frida Maanum goes into the book, too.

    She's committed a few silly fouls today but she's straight into the book for kicking the ball away.

  15. Postpublished at 14:16 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Liverpool 0-0 Bristol City

    Olivia Clark is wiped out by Sophie Roman Haug as the Liverpool defender tries have a shot on goal and there will be a stoppage while she receives treatment.

  16. Postpublished at 14:15 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Arsenal 4-1 Chelsea

    Wasted opportunity by Chelsea.

    Too deep and easily collected by Manuela Zinsberger.

  17. YELLOW CARDpublished at 14:15 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Arsenal 4-1 Chelsea

    Noelle Maritz is into the book for a foul on Guro Reiten.

    Chelsea have a free kick in a decent area.

  18. YELLOW CARDpublished at 14:15 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Liverpool 0-0 Bristol City

    Bristol City forward Abi Harrison goes into the referee's book for dissent.

  19. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:14 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Brighton 0-0 Leicester

    Foxes boss Willie Kirk is forced into an early change.

    An injury to defender CJ Bott means she is replaced by Courtney Nevin.

  20. Postpublished at 14:13 Greenwich Mean Time 10 December 2023

    Arsenal 4-1 Chelsea

    Fran Kirby has had enough and goes for it from range. It's a tame effort and flies over the bar.

    Frustrations on show.
