The England pair Jordan Nobbs and Beth Mead were on the scoresheet as Arsenal made it two wins out of two in the Women’s Super League by hammering Yeovil 7-0 at Jewson Stadium.

Nobbs struck in the sixth minute as the Gunners wasted little time in settling to their task after seeing off Liverpool 5-0 on the opening day of the campaign.

Mead then increased Arsenal’s advantage in the 20th minute before second-half substitute Katie McCabe struck within six minutes of her introduction.

Vivianne Miedema, who bagged a hat-trick against Liverpool, added another almost immediately after in the 54th minute. Nobbs added her second with 14 minutes remaining before Dominique Janssen and Kim Little completed the scoring.

Birmingham joined the Gunners on six points after Aoife Mannion’s penalty in first-half stoppage time gave the Blues a 1-0 win over Brighton.

West Ham collected their first point of the season following a goalless draw at home to Reading while there were similarly no goals in the game between Bristol City and Chelsea.
