LFC Women move 10 points clear with win over Sunderland

Liverpool FC Women recorded their seventh consecutive victory in the FA Women’s Championship with a hard-fought 3-0 against Sunderland AFC Ladies at Prenton Park.

Penalties from Katie Stengel and Missy Bo Kearns sandwiched a low drive from Yana Daniels to take the Reds to a win at Prenton Park on Sunday, despite a determined battle by the visitors.

Stengel’s opener early in the second half proved a decisive moment in the contest as Sunderland also lost Neve Herron to a red card for the challenge from behind in the box.

It was the American striker’s fourth goal since her arrival in January in what has proved an important signing for Matt Beard’s side.
