Women's Super League leaders Arsenal Women were left shell-shocked as Birmingham City Women marched to a deserved 2-0 win at St Andrew's on Sunday afternoon.

Jonas Eidevall's side fell behind after just three minutes thanks to Libby Smith's opener, and Birmingham's lead was doubled before half time courtesy of Veatriki Sarri's fine effort.

The hosts have now risen off the foot of the table following their first win of the season, while Arsenal remain at the summit - four points clear of Chelsea Women having played a game more.

Birmingham's win means that Leicester City Women now occupy last place in the division, with Natasha Dowie's winner separating the two sides as Reading rose to fifth.

Continuing their surge up the rankings, Manchester City Women put six unanswered goals past Brighton & Hove Albion Women with six different goalscorers, including a Victoria Williams own goal.

However, Chelsea vs. Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa vs. Everton and West Ham United vs. Manchester United all fell to COVID-19 outbreaks and will be played at a later date.

WSL RESULTS IN FULL:

Birmingham 2-0 Arsenal
Brighton 0-6 Man City
Reading 1-0 Leicester body check tags ::
