Report: Arsenal Women 5-1 Watford

We advanced to the fifth round of the Adobe Women’s FA Cup with a 5-1 win at home to Watford on Sunday afternoon thanks to goals from Alessia Russo, Lia Walti, Stina Blackstenius, Amanda Ilestedt and Frida Maanum.

Gunners loanee Michelle Agyemang ensured we went home without a clean sheet when she pulled one back late on for Watford.

It took just six minutes for us to find the opening goal, Beth Mead playing the ball to Victoria Pelova, who drove a strike at Jacqueline Goldsmid from distance. The Watford goalkeeper spilled it and Russo was in the right place at the right time to follow up for 1-0.
