We're back up and running at St Helens Stadium.

Everton try to string a few passes together from the start.

They need to do more of that in the second half. Villa were on top throughout before the break.

And at St Andrews.

We are back under way at Goodison.

Everton have conceded seven first-half goals in seven games, only Charlton Athletic (10) have conceded more in the Women's Super League this season.

Chelsea

Chelsea boss Sonia Bompastor on a game of two halves: "I think we had a better performance in the second half for sure. I don't want make excuses but the weather today was difficult, especially the wind. We played the first half against the wind and our performance was not good enough. We didn't always make the right decisions. The players who came on in the second half helped us perform better."

On what she said at the break when her side trailed for the first time this season: "Sometimes you just have to stay calm and confident. With the ball we needed to bring the quality on the pitch. We were ruthless and clinical. It's another team performance. Sometimes the first half doesn't go the way you want to but you need to find solutions."

On Melvine Malard's long-range goal: "I wasn't expecting her to score from distance like that. It's a banger as you say here, it's a nice goal. She has the ability to score those goals and she's an important player for us."

Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace boss Jo Potter, speaking after the loss to Chelsea: "I'm extremely disappointed, I'm gutted for the girls because it's just moments. We've shown so much more in that game than what we've shown in previous games. A couple of lapses in concentration in certain moments, two sloppy goals in the second half. Malard scored a wonderful goal but it came from a throw in where she was allowed to turn on the ball and get the strike. On transition we looked much cleaner and its something for us to build on."

On taking the lead from a corner: "It's something we've been speaking about. Set pieces are a big part of the game. I was happy for the girls because they've been working extremely hard for those moments."

Let's get some of the reaction from today's lunchtime kick-off...

London City Lionesses lead at half-time thanks to two absolute gifts from Liverpool.

You just can't give the calibre of players that easy chance.

London City Lionesses haven't scored by creating, they've been there, they've been tenacious and picked off Liverpool when they've made their errors.

All square at the break at St Andrews.

Birmingham have been the better side but weren't able to make their chances count.

The whistle blows to bring an end to a very solid half from Aston Villa.

They probably should have scored more than they did, although Everton had a few threatening moments of their own.

Villa deserve their lead.

Aurara Galli is the latest to have a speculative effort. Her strike sails way over.

Alejandre Bernabe has never scored for Liverpool and she won't get many chances better than that.

The ball bounces up kindly at the back post and she has plenty of time to let it settle, but she takes it early and is always leaning back as the ball zooms into row z.

Oceane Hurtre looks to have a crack from range but sends her effort over the bar.

Charlton have been second-best but are just about managing to keep Birmingham out.

At first you think Godfrey is winning the battle and then Clark will pop up and not give up, make a block.

Godfrey is so tenacious, so quick and a real handful.

It's all become a bit scrappy between Liverpool and London City, with both teams battling it out in the middle of the park.

The visitors break forward with Mapi Leon feeding in Alexia Putellas, who then lays it off for Danielle van de Donk, but she can only send her cross into the arms of Khiara Keating.
