    "Keep the ball" shout the Everton bench.

    Two minutes to go.

    Leicester started the Women's Super League in superb fashion, and were joint top after the first three games, but just one win in their past 11 has put relegation thoughts back on the table.

    Manager Willie Kirk has spoke about the importance of "killing the game off" and how his side should win.

    “We should win, the pressure on the players is to win and we said it in the huddle at the end of the Birmingham game," said Kirk.

    "The players have always responded well to pressure when we’ve put it on them. It’s not healthy to put pressure like that on them every week but this is a week where we have and we should be winning that game if we perform.

    "That’s not disrespectful to Bristol, it’s because I think that player-for-player, we’ve got a better team than them but that doesn’t win you anything.

    “The players have had to train really hard this week to prepare themselves and to prepare each other. They’ll take the pressure onboard and hopefully, turn it into three points.”

    Everton 2-0 West Ham

    Great chance.

    A ball across the box drifts into the path of Katrina Gorry but she smashes over the Everton bar.

    That could have made for a very exciting finish if it had gone in.

  5. INJURY TIMEpublished at 14:51 Greenwich Mean Time 18 February

    Everton 2-0 West Ham

    There will be a minimum of six minutes added on at Walton Hall Park.

    That's how close Everton are to a first home win of the season.

  6. HALF-TIMEpublished at 14:51 Greenwich Mean Time 18 February

    Tottenham 1-1 Aston Villa

    Superb Aston Villa move to end the half and Adriana Leon nearly gets her second goal.

    However, Barbora Votikova - having let a weak shot from the Canadian past her for the opening goal - makes a fine save.

    Level at the break after Amy James-Turner's equaliser. Villa will be wondering how they aren't ahead.

    More alternations. It's a double one for the hosts.

    Tottenham 1-1 Aston Villa

    Aston Villa are pressing to regain the lead before the break but Spurs are doing enough to keep them at bay.

    A scramble in the box nearly brings an opening but there is always a white shirt there in the nick of time to prevent that.

  9. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:48 Greenwich Mean Time 18 February

    Everton 2-0 West Ham

    Another change for West Ham.

    Jess Ziu is replaced by Princess Ademiluyi.

    What a finish!

    Three minutes ago she was the provider and now she's the match-sealer. Aurora Galli drifts forward and then smashes an unstoppable left-footed effort into the top corner from the edge of the area.

    I'm going to be completely honest, I didn't see this coming five minutes ago.

    Jordan Nobbs tries her luck with a free-kick from nearly 30 yards out.

    It's on target but easily saved and held by Barbora Votikova.

    It worked! The hosts have the lead.

    It's a brilliant header from substitute Martina Piemonte too. The Italian leaps highest to nod home a deep free-kick from compatriot Aurora Galli and it loops over Mackenzie Arnold.

    Are Everton about to get their first home win of the campaign?

    Everton 0-0 West Ham

    In his pre-match presser Everton boss Brian Sorensen said "we will do absolutely everything to get our first home win of the season".

    It doesn't really feel like it has played out like that to be completely honest. His side have been pretty lacklustre and safe so far.

    That can change, of course.

  15. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:40 Greenwich Mean Time 18 February

    Everton 0-0 West Ham

    Another change. This time for the visitors.

    Marika Bergman-Lundin replaces Honoka Hayashi.

    There's only been one shot on target in the second half, and only three in the whole game. It hasn't been a classic.

    Will that change in the final 15 minutes of normal time?

    Brilliant jinking run from Adriana Leon but she is closed down as she reaches the edge of the box and her shot is blocked.

    "Come on you Spurs!" is the shout from the home fans at Brisbane Road but a Villa goal looks more likely than a Spurs equaliser at the moment.
