In the latest WSL matches, Manchester United defeated Brighton while Liverpool managed to secure a draw against Tottenham.

Nikita Parris maintained her impressive performance for Manchester United, finding the net in both halves to contribute to her team’s 2-0 victory against Brighton in the Women’s Super League. Parris has tallied a total of eight goals in 12 league matches this season, causing speculation about a potential call-up to the England national team after being left out of the World Cup roster.

Marc Skinner, the manager, commented that it would be difficult to overlook the improvement in the player’s performance. He believes she is currently in a great state of mind and her skills have notably improved, specifically her focus, ability to connect with her teammates, and well-timed runs. He hopes she will be recognized for this by Sarina Wiegman and her team, if they deem it appropriate at this time.

The debut match for Brighton’s temporary coach, Mikey Harris, started off poorly as Parris scored in the ninth minute. Despite this, they only allowed the opposing team to have one shot on goal in the first half. In the second half, Geyse assisted Parris for a second time.

Chelsea’s leaders secured their eighth straight win in all competitions by defeating Everton 3-0. Guro Reiten scored the first goal from a penalty kick in the 27th minute, and she repeated the feat in the 72nd minute. Erin Cuthbert sealed the victory with a late third goal, maintaining the team’s three-point lead over Manchester City and six-point lead over Arsenal after their unexpected defeat to West Ham.

Manchester City secured a 2-0 victory over Leicester thanks to two goals scored in quick succession by England’s Lauren Hemp and Chloe Kelly.

City were held off by Willie Kirk’s team for over 80 minutes until Hemp seized the opportunity from Shaw’s cross. Kelly then sealed the victory with a direct goal from a corner kick, earning three points for City. This win puts them three points ahead of Arsenal, who are currently in third place.

In extra time, Marie Hobinger scored for Merseyside to equalize Celin Bizet’s second-half goal, resulting in a 1-1 draw between Liverpool and Tottenham. This tie keeps both teams at 19 points, trailing Manchester United by five points, with Liverpool holding the advantage in goal difference.
