READING FC WOMEN put in their finest display of the season to take three points at home to Tottenham in the Women’s Super League.
One goal was enough to win the game as Amy Turner’s own goal gave Reading three points.
Kelly Chambers’ team are now seven points above bottom side Leicester City after picking up four points in their last two league matches.
JACQUIE BURNS 7: Came out confidently to claim some crosses when Reading were under pressure towards the end. First league clean sheet of the season.
FAYE BRYSON 8: Got forward excellently, particularly in the first-half and put some brilliant deliveries into the box.
DEANNA COOPER 6: Had to be withdrawn at half-time due to illness after several first-team players missed out on the matchday squad due to flu spreading through the team.
GEMMA EVANS 8: Put in some vital defensive interventions as she helped Reading keep their first league clean sheet of the campaign.
LILY WOODHAM 9: Stunning display in both defence and attack. Drove forward constantly and delivered some pinpoint crosses. Also put in some crucial blocks towards the end.
JUSTINE VANHEAEVERMAET 7: Provided defensive stability in the middle of the park and went on a driving forward late on where she may have been able to have a shot on goal.
SANNE TROELSGAARD 8: A true box to box performance. Provided plenty going forward in the first-half and also completed her defensive duties.
TIA PRIMMER 8: Gave the team plenty of energy in the middle. Her thunderous shot that was tipped onto the crossbar led to the only goal of the game.
AMALIE EIKELAND 7: Worked exceptionally hard and combined well with her teammates in attack, while helping out the full-backs.
LAUREN WADE 7: Combined strongly on the left with Woodham and had a few half chances at goal.
EMMA HARRIES 8: Captained the side for the first time. Very unlucky not to score but pressed well from the front, tested the keeper plenty of times and linked well with her teammates.
