Vivianne Miedema struck twice in the second half as Arsenal thumped Leicester 5-0 in the Women’s Super League.

Beth Mead gave the Gunners an early lead but second-from-bottom Leicester put up stiff resistance until midway through the second half, when Dutch striker Miedema netted a brace in eight minutes.

An own goal and an opportunist strike from Tobin Heath rounded out the scoring.

Arsenal topped the standings with 43 points, two points above Chelsea ahead of their showdown with Reading. Both teams will have four league games left to play after Sunday.

Speaking to the BBC after the win boss Jonas Eidevall said Arsenal can only control what they do on the pitch.

Get to know Arsenal Women’s head coach Jonas Eidevall as he answers a whole range of questions for Inside the WSL including what toppings he likes on his favourite pizza.

“Then in the second half we scored some easy goals, but I think the scoreline fairly did (reflect the match). Demi Lambourne had some amazing saves. I’m not standing here being sorry for winning 5-0, I think it reflects our performance.

“We can prepare for the games we are playing, we can control our own performances, for me I’m just as motivated if we’re on top at the moment or if we’re number two. We need to keep on believing, keep on preparing, keep on performing, and who knows where it takes you in the end. But we can only do whatever we can do.”

Liverpool Women won 4-2 at Bristol City to be crowned champions of the Championship and seal a return to the Women’s Super League.

Liverpool won 4-2 away at Bristol City to win the FA Women’s Championship title in front of a record crowd and clinch promotion back to the WSL.

Niamh Fahey, Jasmine Matthews, Katie Stengel and Missy Bo Kearns were on target for the Reds, with Aggie Beever-Jones and Abi Harrison scoring for Bristol City.

The match was played in front of 5,752 supporters at Ashton Gate, a record attendance for the division.

Current Liverpool boss Matt Beard was in charge when they won the WSL in 2013 and 2014 and has become the first coach to win titles in both of the country’s top two women’s football leagues.

“If you look at this division, everyone thought Liverpool being relegated would go right back up. Nobody’s got a divine right to be anywhere and we’ve earned that right for sure,” Beard said.

“We’ve worked incredibly hard to get back (to the WSL). It’s a tough division. I do think we’ve got a great group of people here and our aim and ambition will be to be sensible, consolidate ourselves and then progress year on year.”

Liverpool are unbeaten in 19 of the 20 matches they have played this season. They are currently on 49 points with two games left to play.

Despite the loss, Bristol City remain second in the table, two points ahead of Crystal Palace with a game in hand on the Eagles.

On November 1st, Super Typhoon Rolly (Goni) the strongest typhoon ever recorded in recent history struck the southern region of the Philippines. An estimated two million Filipinos have been affected, many of whom lost their homes and livelihoods. Ten days later, Typhoon Ulysses (Vamco) swept through many of the same provinces previously devastated by Typhoon Rolly, including Metro Manila and parts of Central Luzon leaving widespread flooding and power outages. Many areas are still struggling to recover from the aftermath of these calamities. Homes and livelihood across various provinces were lost to floods, strong winds and rain.

NHL exec Colin Campbell explains league’s schedule goals in Canada

NHL senior executive vice president Colin Campbell says the league would like to try to preserve as many full-capacity home games as possible for Canadian fans, but acknowledges other factors are at play in redoing the schedule during the current COVID-19 surge. “You’d like to give the fans the opportunity to go to as many games as they can. They’ve already been shortchanged in the last year and a half … shortchanged completely watching hockey here in Canada,” Campbell said in an interview on the Real Kyper and Bourne show on Sportsnet 590 The Fan on Friday. “It’s a rite of passage to watch the world juniors this time of year for all young kids. I remember growing up watching it. Now, it’s cancelled. We’re trying to save as much as we can and delay it.” The NHL postponed nine more games on Friday because of arena capacity issues in Canada — with teams being allowed anywhere from zero fans (Montreal Canadiens) to 50 per cent capacity (Calgary Flames, Edmonton Oilers, Vancouver Can...
