Liverpool beat Everton 2-0 at Anfield to end Everton’s six-match winning run at the ground in the Women’s Super League era. Beata Olsson scored an early header and Cornelia Kapocs added a late second, reflecting Liverpool’s superiority and giving them long-awaited local bragging rights.

Everton goalkeeper Ruby Mace made several crucial interventions, including a goal-line clearance, while Liverpool also hit the crossbar and missed other chances. The result leaves Liverpool with seven points from four matches, whereas Everton remain concerned by their limited creativity and just two league goals this season, both own goals.
