Time for some teams…

Here’s our Friday digest of team news and other news from the Premier League.

WSL scoreline: Arsenal 2-1 Liverpool

Stina Blackstenius got the late winner for the Gunners.

Huge game today for Thomas Frank, facing Brentford with Tottenham today. The draw at Newcastle, last minute though it was, calmed some of the storm but a repeat of last week’s display against Fulham and the home fans will be in uproar.

And in the Premier League, Leandro Trossard, who came on at half-time has levelled for Arsenal at Aston Villa.

Elsewhere in the Championship, crisis club Leicester are leading 3-0 at Derby.

Charlton v Portsmouth game called off

In the Championship, Charlton v Portsmouth has been abandoned:

“Due to a medical emergency in the crowd, today’s match has been abandoned. We thank you for your patience and understanding. Everyone at the club sends their best wishes to the supporter affected and thank our medical team and first responders. Information on when the match will be rescheduled will be announced in due course.”

It was 0-0, the game was just 15 minutes in.
