Women's Super League: Liverpool go above Man Utd with draw at Everton, Tottenham beat Bristol City

Liverpool moved ahead of Manchester United into fourth place in the WSL despite being frustrated in a 0-0 draw against neighbours Everton at Goodison Park.

Matt Beard's Reds dominated possession in front of 9,457 supporters on Women's Football Weekend, but Everton had the best chance of the first half as Emma Bissell fired wide at the near post.

The Toffees went even closer to an opener after the break as Katja Snoeijs struck the underside of the bar, before Justine Vanhaevermaet saw a goalbound volley tipped behind by Rachael Laws.

Liverpool could have won it in the dying moments as Ceri Holland nearly scored a superb solo goal, but saw her close-range shot deflected wide.

The result means Liverpool leapfrog another arch-rival in United into fourth place, while Everton miss the chance to move up the table.

Tottenham consolidated their spot in the top six as Bethany England's goal secured a 1-0 win away at bottom club Bristol City.

Spurs got off to a dream start with England finding the net within two minutes of her return to the starting line-up.

It was her 12th goal against Bristol City in her career, and the striker continued to cause problems after setting up a series of chances for forwards Celin Bizer and Jessica Naz, who could not find a goal to extend the lead.

It did not always go Tottenham's way in the first half, after a difficult start from Bristol City. They did find openings, mainly from set-pieces.

Abi Harrison had the best chance for them in the first half to add a second, collecting the ball after Sille Struck's audacious ball over her head and back into the danger area after the ball dropped from a corner. With space inside the box Harrison couldn't find the power and accuracy to trouble Rebecca Spencer in goal.
