Premier League
Arsenal 6, Birmingham 2

ARSENAL moved five points clear at the top of the table on Sunday with a flattering win.
The scoreline belied a hard-fought contest, which saw the Gunners score three goals in stoppage time to seal the points.
The champions took an early lead through Jayne Ludlow, but Becky Hall equalised for Birmingham. Gemma Davison restored Arsenal’s advantage, but again the visitors drew level when Amy McCann scored just before the hour mark.
Julie Fleeting bagged a brace late on to break Birmingham’s resolve.
There was still time for Kim Little to get her name on the score-sheet, before Davison wrapped up the win with her second of the game.
