Eni Aluko scored twice as the Women’s Super League leaders Chelsea cruised to a 6-0 home victory over bottom club Yeovil. Eleven days on from her appearance before a digital, culture, media and sport committee hearing over the Football Association’s handling of her complaints against the former England manager Mark Sampson, Aluko was on target for the home side’s second and sixth goals.

There were also two apiece for Crystal Dunn and Karen Carney in a win that extended Chelsea’s 100% start in the league to four matches.

Also on 12 points are Manchester City, who scored twice in stoppage time to claim a dramatic 3-1 home victory against Birmingham. The visitors took the lead on six minutes when a superb strike from Lucy Quinn punished sloppy City defending. Izzy Christiansen equalised with a penalty in the 76th minute before Birmingham had Kerys Harrop sent off two minutes later.

Christiansen headed the home side in front in the first minute of time added on, and in the eighth minute of injury time, Jen Beattie added City’s second spot-kick to wrap up the win.

Arsenal are up to fourth after they triumphed 2-0 at Everton, Vivianne Miedema and Beth Mead getting on the scoresheet in what was the visitors’ first match since the departure of manager Pedro Martínez Losa.
