Leaders Bristol see off Doncaster
By Tony Leighton

Women's football

Women's Premier League leaders Bristol Academy moved four points clear at the top with a 3-0 win at Doncaster Belles.

Goals by Gwennan Harries and Emma Jones in the opening 18 minutes set Academy on the way to victory.

Second in the table Watford went down 4-2 at home to Leeds United, whose win lifted them one place to seventh.

Everton moved up to fourth by beating Chelsea 2-1, while sixth-placed Liverpool won 2-0 against bottom club Charlton Athletic.


Women's Premier League

Doncaster Rovers Belles 0-3 Bristol Academy

Goals by Gwennan Harries and Emma Jones in the opening 18 minutes put the Academy in control.

Striker Kerry Bartlett's ninth goal of the season, from a 58th minute penalty, wrapped up the points for the visitors and left the Belles just two points above the relegation zone.

Watford 2-4 Leeds United

Striker Amanda Barr bagged a brace to take her recent goal tally to six in six games as Leeds bounced back from two straight defeats with an impressive victory.

The visitors led only by Barr's opener at the interval, but then Sophie Bradley, Sue Smith and Barr each scored in a 12-minute spell early in the second half.

Donnique Sinclair-Chambers and Cori Daniels hit late goals for Watford, but saving the game proved too tough a task.

After winning three League games in succession to rapidly climb the table, the Hornets have now last two of their last three.

Chelsea 1-2 Everton

England midfielder Fara Williams struck her 13th goal of the season to put the Toffees in front 19 minutes into the second half.

Chelsea were level within three minutes through Dunia Susi, but Williams' England colleague Jody Handley hit the winner 19 minutes from time.

Everton are now the only unbeaten team in the League apart from Arsenal, whose scheduled game at Blackburn Rovers was postponed.

Liverpool 2-0 Charlton Athletic

Charlton are still in search of their first point and first goal of the season after a ninth defeat in a row left them stranded at the foot of the table.

They held out until the 53rd minute, when Gill Hart scored Liverpool's first goal.

But after Faye McCoy added a second nine minutes later there was no way back for the struggling Addicks.
