Follow all the action from Emirates Stadium
Follow The Independent's live coverage of all the action in the FA Women’s Super League today.
A crowd of over 47,000 turned up to the Emirates Stadium, a record attendance for the WSL in England, to see Arsenal beat Tottenham Hotspur in the north London derby. It was one-way traffic throughout and in truth the eventual 4-0 scoreline was the least the Gunners merited, after Beth Mead scored early on to set the tone of the game. Vivianne Miedema scored twice, with Raffaele also heading in in between the Dutchwoman’s brace.
Arsenal beat Brighton 4-0 in the season opener to get their campaign off to a great start and now move to six points from two games, while Spurs edged out Leicester 2-1 to open with a win themselves - but will now need to regroup after a heavy defeat.
