The striker brought up her century for the club when she side-footed in the opener late in the first half and copied Erling Haaland's celebration before extending their lead in added time with another fine finish. Aoba Fujino made sure City would maintain their six-point lead at the top of the Women's Super League by smashing in a third shortly after the hour mark. Aston Villa did pull one back through Lucy Parker, but Vivianne Miedema quickly restored the hosts' three-goal lead with a tap-in. Shaw then had the final say, rolling in her hat-trick with a cool finish before Grace Clinton's goal-bound shot deflected in off the striker to cap a perfect afternoon. Man City will maintain their six point lead at the top of the WSL heading into the winter break and are looking difficult to stop.

Martin Ho returned to the club where he spent three years as assistant manager and looked to have got the better of his former boss Marc Skinner as Spurs took a 3-0 lead. Amid Man Utd dominance, Bethany England gave the visitors the lead as she nodded home, followed by a similar header from Eveliina Summanen in the second minute of first-half stoppage time. The hosts continued to press for a goal after the break, but Spurs again showed their clinical side for the third. Olivia Holdt broke forward before setting up former Man Utd forward Martha Thomas to slot home. With around 15 minutes to play, the Man Utd fight back began as Ella Toone's toe-poked volley pulled a goal back for her side. Then, substitute Frida Rolfo showed her quality to score the next two goals. The first was particularly scrappy, before slotting home from close range in the fourth of five added minutes to seal the point. What was perhaps even more incredible than their comeback was Man Utd hitting the woodwork four times. Three came in the first half - Hinata Miyazawa, Melvine Malard and Maya Le Tissier finding the uprights - before Toone also sent an effort onto the post after she had scored. The result leaves Man Utd in fourth, a point behind Arsenal, heading into the winter break. Tottenham are a further point behind their Sunday rivals and visit again next weekend in the quarter-finals of the League Cup.

The signs were there early on, with Seagulls stopper Sophie Baggaley called into a string of fine saves throughout. Keira Walsh also hit the post in the 19th minute. Two minutes before the end of the first half, Sandy Baltimore broke the deadlock with a sensational strike. She unleashed an arrowed effort into the top right corner to give Chelsea a deserved lead. Please use Chrome browser for a more accessible video player After Kiko Seike had Brighton's best chance of the game shortly after the break, it was an unfortunate Caitlin Hayes own goal that doubled the visitors' lead. She headed home Erin Cuthbert's fine cross, who had been aiming for half-time substitutes Sam Kerr and Wieke Kaptein. The pair gave Chelsea an extra offensive impetus after their introduction, and Kerr showed her quality for Chelsea's third. A ball over the top bounced kindly for the Australia international, who rounded Hayes. Her squared pass was then turned home by Alyssa Thompson, who had made a superb run through the middle, as the pair roared together in celebration. It was the ideal end to 2025 in the WSL for the Blues, but they remain in second place behind Man City.

The Foxes were leading through Shannon O'Brien's second-half goal, but the Lionesses had a golden opportunity to snatch a point when Janice Cayman felled Grace Geyoro. Kosovare Asllani's spot-kick, though, was weak and comfortably stopped by Leitzig. Leicester overtake Everton to climb into ninth place in the table, moving six points clear of Liverpool.

The Reds had seen defender Gemma Bonner shown a red card after 19 minutes for fouling West Ham striker Riko Ueki as she chased a through ball. Ueki gave West Ham the lead just before the hour from a corner, but Mia Enderby soon equalised with her first WSL goal. West Ham went in front again in the 68th minute through Anna Csiki, who deflected home Ffion Morgan's shot. But Beata Olsson rescued a point for Liverpool when she slotted in after a defensive mix-up to leave the Reds just two points adrift.
