Manchester United Women thrashed Arsenal Women at the FA Women's Super League match.

England striker Alessia Russo's second-half goal helped Manchester United Women to claim a thrilling 1-0 victory over Arsenal Women at the FA Women's Super League match at the Leigh Sports Village.

With the sensational victory, Manchester United Women move four points clear at the top of the Women's Super League.

The wounded Gunners, missing regular captain Kim Little after a season-ending hamstring injury, were forced to replace Leah Williamson after an awkward fall early in the first period before Alessia Russo capitalized on the visitors' misfortune by firing the decider in first-half stoppage time.
