Manchester City Women end their winless run in the Women's Super League while table-toppers Arsenal remain perfect following the completion of gameweek six.

Manchester City Women claimed a long-awaited win in the Women's Super League by beating Leicester City Women 4-1 in gameweek six.

Gareth Taylor's side had taken just one point from the previous 12 on offer before goals from Caroline Weir, Keira Walsh, Lauren Hemp and Laura Coombs set them on their way to a dominant win.

City have risen to seventh in the rankings after snapping their four-game winless run in the league, while their rivals Manchester United Women dropped two points against Tottenham Hotspur Ladies in devastating fashion following Ria Percival's equaliser right at the death.

Marc Skinner's outfit sit fifth in the table following that draw while Spurs occupy third spot, with Arsenal Women easing to a 4-0 win over West Ham United Women to maintain their three-point lead at the summit.

Chelsea Women ensured that the gap would not get bigger as they inflicted a third-straight defeat on Aston Villa Women, with Jessie Fleming netting the decisive goal in the 22nd minute.

Elsewhere, Brighton & Hove Albion Women rose to fourth with a 1-0 win over 10th-placed Everton Ladies, while Reading Women picked up a second win on the bounce by humbling Birmingham City Women 4-0, with Scott Booth's side still winless this term.
