Leah Galton fired the Reds into the lead in the 21st minute, receiving the ball from Ella Toone before smashing it high into the roof of the net. Galton then grabbed her second of the afternoon eight minutes later, as she brought down Jess Sigsworth’s lofted pass to fire a low effort into the bottom-right corner. Toone made it 3-0 in the second period as she tapped the ball home from a couple of yards out, following Jane Ross’s cross.
Everton gave themselves a lifeline soon after when Danielle Turner headed the ball home from a corner. The Blues set up a thrilling finale in the closing stages of the game as Lucy Graham’s stunning cross-cum-shot found the back of the net in the 83rd minute.
