## Summary

Manchester United missed the chance to move closer to the Women’s Super League’s European qualification places after a goalless draw away to Everton. Everton’s organised midfield and defence restricted United for much of the match, while the hosts will feel they had a chance to move above their opponents.

Courtney Brosnan saved Elisabeth Terland’s close-range effort as United improved late on, but Everton also created openings: Hannah Blundell and Ornella Vignola tested Phallon Tullis-Joyce. Everton climbed above Arsenal into sixth, pending Arsenal’s Sunday match, and remain two points behind United; they have yet to beat United in 15 WSL meetings.
