Weekend Round Up

It was a busy weekend in women’s football.  WSL 1 had a break due to the FA cup games being played but WSL 2 was busy with Doncaster Belles starting off the weekend with a 5-2 win over Reading at the Keepmoat Stadium.  

There were 4 games on Saturday with wins for Sunderland, Watford and Yeovil Town along with a 2-2 draw between the Lionesses and Bees. 

It was also the quarter finals of the FA Women’s Cup.  The away teams progressed through to the Semi Finals.  Notts County beat Portsmouth 2-0, the only non-WSL team that was left in the competition while Everton put out city rivals Liverpool and Chelsea beat newcomers Manchester City. 

Birmingham and Arsenal have yet to play their match as Birmingham were in Tyreso on Saturday for the second leg of the UEFA Champions League Semi Final.  The Blues played well and although Brazilian star Marta missed a penalty, Tyreso managed to win 3-0. 

Wolfsburg beat Potsdam 4-1 in the other Semi Final which leads to a Tyreso and Wolfsburg final next month in Lisbon.
