Gribz 837 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 But its the ladies this time. Women's Super League champions Arsenal finished the season unbeaten as they drew 1-1 at Birmingham City on the last day of the campaign. The point for the Blues meant they clinched second place to join Arsenal in next season's Champions League. Everton claimed third with a 1-0 win against fourth-placed Bristol Academy, while Lincoln beat Chelsea 3-2 to leap-frog their opponents into fifth place. Liverpool finished bottom after losing 2-0 to Doncaster Belles. Birmingham City 1-1 Arsenal Arsenal had to come from behind at Birmingham to ensure they finished the season unbeaten. Striker Eni Aluko and left-back Kerys Harrop both went close as Birmingham edged possession in the first half, and they deservedly went ahead 12 minutes before half-time through Emily Simkins as the midfielder coolly tucked a 15-yard shot into the bottom corner of the net. But Arsenal drew level four minutes into the second half as striker Ellen White produced a neat finish from just inside the penalty area. Former Gunners goalkeeper Rebecca Spencer then denied the champions victory with excellent saves from midfielder Kim Little and right-back Alex Scott. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Ally 0 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I'm fairly matey with Ellen White. Only reason i've ever bothered noticing women's results. Arsenal always seem to do well. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
