    West Ham in front, and with the sweetest of strikes.

    Emily van Egmond is the architect with a neat lay-off on the edge of the box, but the finish from Katerina Svitkova is top drawer.

    She lets the ball roll across her body and fires left-footed across the helpless Hannah Hampton and into the far corner of the net.

  2. GREAT SAVE!published at 21:10 GMT 17 March 2021

    Bristol City 0-2 Man City

    Oh that is brilliant again from Sophie Baggaley.

    Manchester City substitute Demi Stokes fires in a brilliant ball which just evades Ellen White. But the cross is on target and Baggaley has to readjust to claw the ball away.

    A very tricky saved made to look easy.

    Bristol City 0-2 Man City

    Fifteen minutes to go and the waves of Manchester City attacks continue. This time it's Lauren Hemp who takes up a great position, but she can't get the ball out of her feet and the opportunity peters out.

    Bristol City are still unable to get forward on the break.

    Aston Villa 0-1 Brighton

    Not much to shout about in Walsall.

    Aston Villa have shaded things as they hunt for an equaliser but in truth the hosts haven't looked like scoring.

    This could be a classic smash-and-grab from Brighton.

    Bristol City 0-2 Man City

    More excellent work out wide from Chloe Kelly. The Manchester City winger finds Caroline Weir in the middle, but her shot rolls agonisingly wide.

    Around 20 minutes left now in all our 19:30 GMT games.

  6. GREAT SAVE!published at 21:00 GMT 17 March 2021

    West Ham 1-1 Birmingham

    Big moment in this game.

    Martha Thomas is clean through on goal with only Hannah Hampton to beat, but the Birmingham keeper makes herself big and makes a crucial stop with her legs.

    Top goalkeeping.

  7. GREAT SAVE!published at 20:57 GMT 17 March 2021

    Bristol City 0-2 Man City

    Add another big save to Bristol City keeper Sophie Baggaley's end of season highlights reel.

    Sam Mewis is the latest to be denied by the stopper. One-on-one, the England youngster dives brilliantly to her right.

    The title challengers just can't seem to score a third.

    Big win for Chelsea.

    After five minutes you thought it wasn't going to be their day following that penalty miss. But the forwards delivered.

    And what about Fran Kirby? Another MVP performance.

    West Ham 1-1 Birmingham

    Much, much better from West Ham. Martha Thomas races away from the Birmingham defence but her low shot is gathered by Hannah Hampton at the second attempt.

  10. INJURY TIMEpublished at 20:51 GMT 17 March 2021

    Three minutes added on. Just end it now ref. This game's been over for quite some time.

  11. GREAT SAVE!published at 20:51 GMT 17 March 2021

    Bristol City 0-2 Man City

    Add another Manchester City shot on target to the stats.

    Ellen White, already has one today and she should really have made it two with this first-time strike on the turn.

    Bristol City keeper Sophie Baggaley does brilliantly to palm it away, diving to her left.

    West Ham 1-1 Birmingham

    It turns out Birmingham started the second half with 10 players.

    No sooner do West Ham score then Claudia Walker returns to the field, complete with a big white bandage too, and a clean shirt.

    Emily van Egmond (46 mins)

    Perfect start to the second half for West Ham.

    Birmingham keeper Hannah Hampton fails to hold a hanging cross from Gilly Flaherty and Emily van Egmond is on hand to poke home from barely six yards.

  15. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 20:43 GMT 17 March 2021

    Everton 0-3 Chelsea

    Fran Kirby's day is done. If this was a full ground she'd leave it with a standing ovation.

    The England international has been superb tonight.

    Jessie Fleming is the player to come on for the visitors.

  16. KICK-OFFpublished at 20:43 GMT 17 March 2021

    West Ham 0-1 Birmingham

    And we're back under way in Dagenham too.

    West Ham's Gilly Flaherty is still out there, wearing a big white bandage on her head - but there's no sign of Birmingham's Claudia Walker, who she clashed heads with late in the first half.

    Game over!

    Melanie Leupolz avenges her penalty miss with a simple finish.

    Chelsea's Pernille Harder latches onto a ball over the top but her first-time shot rebounds straight into the path of the German midfielder.

    No way back for Everton now.

    Likewise, things have got going in the Midlands. Aston Villa have work to do.

    We go again. Bristol City get us under way.

    Everton 0-2 Chelsea

    This match has slowed down a little. After their earlier spell of pressure, Everton are starting to lose concentration with plenty of wild passes in midfield.

    With 15 minutes to go, things suit Chelsea just fine.
