A Guro Bergsvand own goal at the AMEX Stadium handed three points to a visiting Everton side, with Tatiana Pinto’s 63rd-minute equaliser proving to not be enough after the Holmgaard twins combined to open the scoring.
As it happened
A tightly-contested affair on the South Coast lacked clear-cut chances in the first half, with the first goal not arriving until Everton’s Holmgaard twins combined on the hour mark.

An unfortunate series of events would ultimately see Guro Bergsvand bundle the ball into her own net following Aurora Galli’s ball into the box.
