Stina Blackstenius scored a late winner as Arsenal inflicted on Manchester City their first defeat of the Women\u2019s Super League season by beating them 2-1 at the Mangata Pay UK Stadium.<\/p>\n
The Sweden international put the Gunners back ahead with an 87th-minute finish, capitalising on a misjudgement by Khiara Keating as the City goalkeeper came out to try to deal with a ball forward from Katie McCabe.<\/p>\n
Earlier, the Gunners had opened the scoring through Steph Catley just before the quarter-hour mark, then seen Keating save a Kim Little penalty – awarded following a foul by the teenage keeper on Cloe Lacasse – soon after, before Chloe Kelly brought things level in the 72nd minute.<\/p>\n
The result means Jonas Eidevall\u2019s Arsenal join Gareth Taylor\u2019s City on 10 points from five games, three behind leaders Chelsea.<\/p>\n
After the game, Taylor accused his counterpart Eidevall of \u201cbullying\u201d the fourth official.<\/p>\n
Speaking to the BBC, Taylor said of Eidevall: \u201cThat is always the same with him because he is constantly at the fourth official and I think it is bullying.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am protecting the fourth official, but that\u2019s not my job.\u201d<\/p>\n
There are two other teams with the same amount of points as City and Arsenal, one of which is Tottenham, who were denied a fourth successive victory by Aurora Galli\u2019s late penalty as they were held 1-1 at home by Everton.<\/p>\n
Galli converted from the spot with five minutes of normal time to go to cancel out Grace Clinton\u2019s first-half goal for Spurs.<\/p>\n
The other side on 10 points is Liverpool following a 2-1 home win over Leicester.<\/p>\n

Marie Hobinger\u2019s 84th-minute goal secured the Reds victory after Melissa Lawley had given them the lead early in the second half and Missy Goodwin equalised just before the hour.<\/p>\n
Promoted Bristol City claimed their first points of the season as they won 3-2 at West Ham, with Brooke Aspin netting the decisive goal.<\/p>\n
An eventful first half saw the hosts lead via Viviane Asseyi\u2019s penalty, the visitors reply with efforts from Amalie Thestrup and Ella Powell and West Ham\u2019s Riko Ueki notch a stoppage-time equaliser, before Aspin put the Robins back in front 10 minutes after the break.<\/p>\n
In the late kick-off, Manchester United twice came from behind to draw 2-2 with Brighton, Rachel Williams scoring eight minutes into stoppage time to earn a point.<\/p>\n
