Arsenal made it five consecutive wins in the Women’s Premier League and six in all competitions with a convincing 3-0 victory over Brighton. Stina Blackstenius opened the scoring in the 12th minute with a shot into the top left-hand corner of the net before Caitlin Foord doubled their advantage with 10 minutes to go in front of a record crowd of 4,921 at a sold-out Broadfield Stadium. Frida Maanum sealed the three points in stoppage time with her first goal of the season after being teed up by Cloe Lacasse, leaving the second-placed Gunners three points behind leaders Chelsea in the table. Bristol City twice came from behind to earn a 2-2 draw with fellow strugglers Everton at Walton Hall Park. Martina Piemonte put the hosts in front just five minutes into the contest but Amy Rodgers slammed home from inside the area just before the interval to bring the scores level. Everton retook the lead in the 57th minute courtesy of Megan Finnigan and looked on course for only their second win of the WSL season when Amalie Thestrup dinked home from close range with eight minutes remaining to earn rock-bottom City a share of the spoils. Tottenham extended their unbeaten run to six matches with a 1-1 draw against Leicester at the King Power Stadium. Leicester went ahead in the 18th minute when Janice Cayman received a pass from Hannah Cain before firing home but were pegged back when Celin Bizet latched onto a through ball and finished coolly. Rachel Daly scored a brilliant stoppage-time winner as Aston Villa came out on top in a five-goal thriller to beat West Ham 3-2 and double their points tally for the campaign. Viviane Asseyi’s penalty put West Ham a goal to the good but Villa turned the game on its head through Anna Patten and Adriana Leon. West Ham thought they had snatched a point when Lisa Evans drilled home from outside the area with 10 minutes to go. But, the decisive moment came two minutes into added time when England star Daly smashed into the top corner to snatch all three points for Villa.

Alexis Mac Allister was overcome with emotion after a potential farewell to Brighton on the final day of the Premier League season. Brighton secured sixth spot and a place in next season’s Europa League despite a defeat to Aston Villa as they closed an excellent season. The club overcame significant upheaval early in the campaign after Graham Potter was lured to Chelsea, with Roberto De Zerbi’s installation as manager proving inspired as he led the club into Europe for the first time. Mac Allister, also a key part of Argentina’s World Cup triumph in December, has proved influential in midfield, and has now been heavily linked with a move away from the club. And the midfielder was left in tears after featuring for perhaps the final time in a Brighton shirt, embracing his manager De Zerbi and saluting the supporters. The 24-year-old has been particularly connected with a switch to Liverpool, who are on the hunt for a midfield refresh with Naby Keita, James Milner and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain among those leaving the Merseyside club this summer. Manchester United and Chelsea are also said to be monitoring the talented Mac Allister. De Zerbi indicated after the Aston Villa defeat that he expected to lose both the Argentinian and his midfield colleague Moises Caicedo. “I think that can be the last game of Alexis and Moises, I’m really sorry,” said De Zerbi. “They are two great people and two great players. “The policy of Brighton is like this,” added De Zerbi. “I think it’s right they can leave, can change teams and play in a level higher. “We are ready. We have to find others big players to play without Alexis and Moises.” Read More Everton’s season – and future – was saved by Sean Dyche’s own brand of creativity James Ward-Prowse, James Maddison and 16 Premier League transfer targets after relegation Premier League 2022/23 season awards: Best player, manager, transfer flop and breakthrough act Unai Emery toasts ‘champagne moment’ as Aston Villa book European adventure Aston Villa end European exile as victory over Brighton secures seventh place Roberto De Zerbi preparing for busy summer building competitive Brighton squad
