Miedema retains London award Arsenal’s Vivianne Miedema has taken home the Women’s Player of the Year at the London Football Awards, for the second year running.

Manager of the Year was awarded to Brentford’s Thomas Frank, who beat Premier League heavyweights Frank Lampard and Roy Hodgson and Chelsea Women manager Emma Hayes.

Now in its sixth year, the London Football Awards is run in aid of Willow, the national charity set up by Bob Wilson and his wife Megs, to support seriously ill 16-40-year-olds to fulfil uplifting and unforgettable Special Days. The event celebrates the very best of London’s football and honours all aspects of the game, from Manager of the Year and Young Player of the Year, through to Women’s Player of the Year, and many more.

Winners of the The FA ‘For All’ Award (recognising grassroots projects or clubs linked to County FAs) and the Community Project of the Year award (spotlighting the great local work of clubs), were Middlesex FA/Really Real and Palace for Life Foundation/Divert Programme, respectively. Both exemplify how important the awards view diversity and champion all aspects of the game, nothing more so than inclusion and engagement with underrepresented groups participating in football.

Bob Wilson, Willow Co-Founder and Life President, commented: “Our debut in our new home, Camden’s celebrated Roundhouse, proved to be something special and memorable. The London Football Awards is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the very best of London football.

Even though it’s been a challenging season so far for the capital’s clubs, it was great to honour the achievements of both the winners and nominees. This ceremony is a vital event to support the work of Willow in raising important funds to provide Special Days for seriously ill young adults.”

UEFA have stated that this is a general precautionary measure, taken to avoid the possibility of players – many of whom would be minors – being stranded away from their families in the event of host governments declaring lockdowns or quarantines.

Further information about the rescheduling of these competitions will be provided in due course, after a thorough assessment of options.

Late White goal gives England win England 1 (White 83) Japan 0 Ellen White scored a late winner to give England a 1-0 victory over Japan in their second match at the SheBelieves Cup. England got their SheBelieves Cup title defence up and running with a 1-0 victory over Japan, thanks to a trademark Ellen White goal. Both sides struggled to forge clear cut chances as Phil Neville opted for a refreshed line up to the one that lost 2-0 to the USA on Friday morning.

But ultimately it was a combination of two of England's more experienced players that led to White's winner eight minutes from time in New Jersey as fellow substitute Toni Duggan laid on the chance for her strike partner.

Teenager Lauren Hemp, on her second consecutive start, very nearly gave Neville's side the perfect start when she went through one-on-one with goalkeeper Sakiko Ikeda but her effort was well-saved.

Chloe Kelly then put Beth England in on goal ten minutes later, but the Chelsea striker was unable to finish the chance despite her red-hot form for club this season.

England then had another good opportunity to score on the half-hour mark, this time played in by Jordan Nobbs, but again Ikeda stood firm.

Neville made a raft of changes in the second half, including the introduction of some more experienced forwards in the form of White and Duggan.

It was a combination of the substitutes that ultimately resulted in the winner as Duggan robbed a Japanese defender as they passed the ball around their back four and picked out White for a simple finish from ten yards out.

Japan will be disappointed by the way they gave the ball away in the lead up to the goal, but that didn't stop White pulling out the trademark celebration on her 91st England appearance.

Ellie Roebuck, Rachel Daly, Steph Houghton Millie Bright, Demi Stokes, Keira Walsh (sub Leah Williamson 60mins), Georgia Stanway (sub Lucy Staniforth 69mins), Jordan Nobbs (sub Jill Scott 90mins), Lauren Hemp (sub Toni Duggan 60mins), Chloe Kelly (sub Nikita Parris 60mins), Beth England. Subs not used: Carly Telford, Alex Greenwood, Abbie McManus, Alessia Russo, Sandy MacIver, Grace Fisk.

Cup campaign ends in defeat England 0 Spain 1 (Putellas 83) England's final game of their disappointing SheBelieves Cup campaign ended in defeat as they were beaten 1-0 by Spain England were undone by a set piece goal as they were beaten 1-0 by Spain in their third and final game, which resulted in a second defeat in their defence of the trophy. The most disappointing aspect of the game was England’s failure to hit the target with a single shot during the course of the match.

It was a tale of two halves in Texas and Phil Neville’s side had numerous chances to get their noses in front before the break. But the Spaniards grew into the game during the second half and eventually got the breakthrough with seven minutes left as Alexia Putellas rifled a header home from a corner.

Nikita Parris provided England’s first real piece of quality in the game with a jinking run down the right wing and then into the box but couldn’t pick out a team mate.

Ellen White, who scored twice last time the two teams faced each other, was then played in by skipper for the night Jill Scott but blasted her effort over the bar.

Neville’s side were creating all of the chances early on and very nearly got the ball over the line when Jordan Nobbs whipped a wicked ball into the penalty area but neither White or Parris could apply the finishing touch.

La Roja started the second half much brighter and caught England in possession on the hour mark as Carly Telford was forced into a brave save from left back Ainhoa Moraza as she outpaced the England defence, blocking the shot with her face.

Chloe Kelly made her third appearance off the bench at the competition and almost made an immediate impact as she found some space in the box but dragged her shot wide.

Neville then handed a first international appearance to Alessia Russo but it was all happening at the other end and Telford was called upon again to keep her side out of trouble.

Moments later, the killer blow arrived as a corner found the head of the unmarked Putellas, who rifled a bullet header into the back of the net.

The final chance of the game fell to Parris to stab home a late equaliser but the former Manchester City forward couldn’t direct her effort on goal.

Carly Telford, Rachel Daly, Millie Bright (sub Steph Houghton 45mins), Abbie McManus, Alex Greenwood, Jill Scott, Leah Williamson, Jordan Nobbs (sub Georgia Stanway 62mins), Nikita Parris, Toni Duggan (sub Alessia Russo 76mins), Ellen White (sub Chloe Kelly 70mins).

Under-21s complete double over France There was better news for England Under-21s as they earned their second victory in their double header over France in a matter of days, as they won 2-0 at St. George's Park on Sunday afternoon.

Rehanne Skinner's side had already earned a 1-0 win over the French on Thursday, Rianna Dean scoring the only goal of the game, but made it back-to-back wins and another clean sheet to complete a successful camp.

Liverpool striker Niamh Charles put England ahead after just five minutes before Rianna Dean, who got the vital goal last time out, scored the second just after the hour mark to make it two goals in as many games.

Emily Ramsey, Esmee Morgan, Lotte Wubben-Moy, Maz Pacheco (sub Taylor Hinds 62mins), Megan Finnigan, Niamh Charles, Aimee Palmer (sub Connie Scofield 45mins), Hannah Cain (sub Emily Syme 45mins), Ella Toone (sub Amy Rogers 62mins), Rianna Dean (sub Angela Addison 62mins), Poppy Pattinson (sub Niamh Cashin 45mins). Subs not used: Charlotte Clarke, Amelia Hazard.

Under-19s suffer third defeat England Under-19s slipped to a third defeat on the spin as they narrowly lost to Denmark by 2-1 in La Manga on Sunday afternoon.

Emma Coates' side were looking to bounce back from a 3-0 opening defeat to the USA and a 2-1 loss at the hands of Sweden on Friday but were thwarted by Denmark in the last of their three games out in Spain.

England didn't make life easy for themselves by giving away a penalty in the opening ten minutes, which was converted by Sofie Lundgaard, and falling two behind when Cecile Flo Nielsen doubled the Danes' lead.

There was hope when substitute Holly Manders pulled one back with fifteen minutes left on the clock but there would be no England equaliser, meaning Coates' side will travel back from Spain winless.

Emily Orman, Naomi Hartley, Kiera Skeels, Katie Bradley (sub Holly Manders 45mins), Molly Pike, Jessica Park (sub Ruby Grant 72mins), Ebony Salmon (sub Emma Bissell 87mins), Jodie Hutton, Libby Smith, Lia Cataldo (sub Maya Le Tissier 59mins), Mel Filis. Subs not used: Frances Stenson, Beth Roberts, Missy Bo Kearns, Annabel Blanchard, Aimee Everett, Abbie Roberts, Simran Jhamat.

Southampton win on Women’s Day Southampton Women 2 Exeter City 1 Southampton Women's consolidated second spot in the FAWNL Division One South West table with a narrow, hard fought 2-1 home win over closest rivals Exeter City at Winklebury. With both clubs looking to narrow the gap to leaders Southampton FC, the result was in doubt to the final kick with home keeper Rose Kite preserving the three points with a superb last minute save.

Things had started well for the hosts with Laura Vokes giving them an early lead with a free kick well struck from wide right on 13 minutes. Erin Bloomfield was proving to be a real handful for the Grecians' defence and went very close to adding a second, but keeper Kyanna Orchard did well to deflect her shot wide on 18 minutes.

Exeter had looked lively themselves and equalised with a superbly worked goal on 23 minutes.

Ella-Mae Miller played a lovely pass down the right Anthea Kaptein battles for the ball with Erin Bloomfield touchline to free Connie Pengelly for a precise low cross (www.jamesprickett.co.uk). which was fired in past Kite on the run by Daniella Tyson.

Exeter's Megan Robinson had a low effort well held by Kite but the home team grew stronger as the half finished without really creating any clear cut chances to leave a well contested match level at the break.

The real drama was saved for the second period. Orchard saved well from Bloomfield on 47 minutes but four minutes later was penalised with a yellow card for handling Philippa Holden's goalbound shot outside the box after again denying Bloomfield with an initial save with her feet.

The resulting free kick was cleared but soon after Southampton retook the lead on 57 minutes from another Vokes set piece, Kellie Warren showed great awareness to nip in between defender and keeper and flick the dropping ball home.

Any thought of a comfortable home win were soon put aside as Exeter poured forward in search of the equaliser. Moreover, a series of injuries to Southampton players forced constant reshuffles to formation and personnel with Bloomfield and the injured Warren swapping places for a while then finally substitute keeper Emily Paines filling in as an outfield player for the final ten minutes.

Through all this, Southampton skipper Lauren Cheshire led by example as the back line fended off almost constant Exeter pressure. The visitors had a penalty appeal turned down then Georgie Barbour-Gresham fired a 25-yard effort inches wide after a defensive mix up on 76 minutes.

Southampton still looked dangerous on the break with Jane Yeates denied by Orchard and then by the post after a brilliant team move started by Cheshire in her own penalty area and involving five different players down the left.

It was left to Kite to deny Exeter a leveller deep into added time, diving away to her right to turn aside a low shot bound for the bottom corner and seal a home victory against a highly impressive Exeter City team, full of running and neat combination play.

On International Women's Day, this match was a great example of so much that is good about the game, full of passion, bravery and skill from every player.

Abbi grants Scotland win over Iceland Scotland 1 (Grant 55) Iceland 0 Scotland made it two wins out of two in the Pinatar Cup with a dominant performance against Iceland.

A second half strike from Abbi Grant handed Scotland the win and Ukraine's 4-0 win over Northern Ireland later in the day meant Shelley Kerr's side had won the Pinatar Cup before they played their final game.

Shelley Kerr made a host of changes to the team that beat Ukraine on Wednesday with only Caroline Weir, Claire Emslie and Hannah Godfrey retaining their starting berths.

Christie Murray was bright from the off and went close with a powerful drive from the edge of the box early on which was well turned away by the Iceland ‘keeper Siguroardottir.

The chances continued to come for Scotland. Notably, Chelsea forward Erin Cuthbert went close with a fierce strike from 20 yards out and Abbi Grant passed up a great opportunity from close range when played in by Weir, firing her shot over the bar.

Although there were no goals to show for Scotland’s control at the break, Kerr would have been pleased at the number of times her side were able to carve open a disciplined Iceland side.

Sure enough, Scotland’s persistence was rewarded in the 55th minute when Grant opened the scoring with her first goal for the national team. The Birmingham City forward cut in from the right and curled a shot into the far corner with her left foot, to give her side a deserved lead.

Scotland continued to press for another goal and were unlucky not to score when Cuthbert had a pop from distance, this time her effort flashed narrowly over the bar. The ever-involved Emslie then fired a low shot across the face of goal which was well dealt with

by Siguroardottir.

Emma Mitchell also went close late on when she latched on to a cross from substitute Lizzie Arnot at the far post, but there was no one close enough to convert her header across the face of goal.

Lee Alexander, Emma Mitchell, Rachel Corsie, Rachael Boyle, Caroline Weir, Leanne Crichton, Christie Murray (sub Lucy Graham 77mins), Abbi Grant (sub Lizzie Arnot 77mins), Claire Emslie, Erin Cuthbert, Hannah Godfrey.

Scotland complete perfect week Scotland 2 (Cuthbert 35, Grant 38) Northern Ireland 1 (Furness 5) Scotland ended their Pinatar Cup campaign with maximum points after a hard fought 2-1 victory over Northern Ireland.

Shelley Kerr’s side had already won the tournament prior to kick off and were presented with the trophy after a match where first half goals from Erin Cuthbert and Abbi Grant sealed the win.

Scotland controlled the opening exchanges but found themselves behind after Rachel Furness headed home from a looping delivery. The Liverpool player made no mistake from close range from Demi Vance’s cross.

Martha Thomas could have equalised minutes later when she was played through on goal by Erin Cuthbert but snatched at her shot and sent it wide.

Northern Ireland almost made it two midway through the first half when goalscorer Furness again rose well in the box, but Rachel Corsie was on hand to clear her effort off the line. That moment proved crucial for Scotland who would equalise soon after.

Picking up the ball in a pocket of space, Cuthbert unleashed a fierce drive from outside the area which totally wrongfooted Northern Ireland goalkeeper Jackie Burns as it flew into the net. just three minutes later, Scotland were in front courtesy of Abbi Grant. The forward capitalised on a mistake in the Irish rearguard, receiving the ball from Lizzie Arnot before finishing into the bottom corner from 12 yards out. That was her second goal in as many games for her country.

Sporting their newly released away kit, Scotland maintained the intensity of their first half performance into the second and went close to scoring again shortly after the restart when Sophie Howard saw her effort cleared off the line.

Erin Cuthbert then took aim from a similar range that saw her score Scotland’s first goal of the evening, but this time Burns was well placed to stop the goalbound effort. Cuthbert saw another long-range effort fly narrowly over the crossbar again moments later.

Jane Ross went closest to adding a third late on, but the impressive Burns was on hand to palm her right footed shot from the edge of the area over the bar.

Shannon Lynn, Rachel Corsie, Nicola Docherty (sub Emma Mitchell 17mins), Rachael Boyle, Sophie Howard, Christie Murray (sub Leanne Crichton 65mins), Abbi Grant (sub Hayley Lauder 76mins), Martha Thomas (sub Amy Muir 84mins), Lucy Graham (sub Caroline Weir 65mins), Erin Cuthbert, Lizzie Arnot (sub Jane Ross 84mins).

We talk to‌..

Nic Worthington (Burnley FC Women)

Burnley FC Women picked up their first league win since November when they beat Loughborough Foxes 2-0 on Sunday, in only their third match in that period.

We talked to Burnley midfielder Nic Worthington, who was delighted to get back to winning ways again and admitted that they are still searching for a top two place:

NW: Absolutely, we know as a group we haven't been performing to our best after the Christmas break so getting three points on Sunday was massive and hopefully we can now push on for the remainder of our season.

NW: The four to five weeks off wasn't ideal. We obviously keep training but it's not the same intensity as a match day. We started strong but in the second half we dropped off the intensity and Stoke had the edge.

NW: I believe we were the strongest team, however 1-0 is never a secure scoreline in football.

Our keeper Emily Gibbins played with the team for the first time this season and had to pull off some excellent saves. I did feel very confident, especially in the second half, we proved to be dominant in and out of possession and limited Loughborough’s chances.

NW: It has been very, very difficult to gain any sort of momentum after the Christmas period.

We want to play every weekend to maintain our intensity and keep building on our performance level. However, with games being cancelled we can't do this. We have to make sure that in training we are working 110% to maintain our fitness and sharpness.

NW: Hull are battling hard at the bottom end of the table so it won't be an easy game. We played them in the FA Cup earlier in the season and they proved a tough test. They will be wanting to get a result on the day and will prove a strong opposition for us once again.

NW: Yes, Sunderland are stretching their lead every week now and proving a formidable team.

We still have plenty of games in hand and I think second is the target now but any top half position will be a remarkable achievement for our first season in the National League North.

We still have Sunderland to play twice, once at home and away. I will be looking forward to that.

NW: I think the goal was to stay in the league this season and not drop straight back down. So we have certainly cemented our place now. The fact we are aiming for second place speaks volumes of our achievements so far. Nothing can be taken for granted, we still have some very strong teams left to play and the next couple of months will decide our season.

NW: I’m very proud to play for Burnley women and the club has some amazing achievements so far. Matt Bee and the team have worked hard to get us into this position. With the players we have and the dedicated coaches there Is no reason why we can't move up and be in the Championship in the next couple of seasons. I'm very excited for the future at Burnley.

Our thanks to Nic!

Army sixes success in Grantham The 2020 Army Sixes has concluded and went extremely well in Grantham last week.

The overall winners of the tournament were 4 Regiment RA who beat 8 Trg Bn REME in the final. 34 Field Hospital won the Plate beating HQ 1 Div in the final.

Despite the inclement weather the moral of the teams was first class.

Tournament organiser Major Mark Normanton said: "Those who visited enjoyed the occasion especially from the CoC which was brilliant to see, they all annotated that the event was outstanding and they will all enter their units into future events.

"The real plus was the football itself and the attitude of the players, another bonus was that every team attended with coaching staff for the first time ever. We had senior staff officers playing, supporting the junior ranks from their 2 Star HQ, Phase Two Trainees (they even made it to the final), Reservists and Regulars underlining that the tournament reached out to all aspects of the Army".

"I also take this opportunity to thank the Officials who were outstanding throughout and really helped mentor those playing for the first time."

Patience rewarded for Wales Wales 2 (Wynne 68, Lawrence 76) Estonia 0 Goals from Megan Wynne and Nadia Lawrence in the final quarter of the match earned Wales a 2-0 win over Estonia on a night when patience was a key attribute for Jayne Ludlow's side.

Despite the freezing conditions, there was a warm welcome for Estonia manager Jarmo Matikainen on his return to Wales. The popular Finnish coach was Jayne Ludlow's predecessor, and played an important part in the development of players like Angharad James, Natasha Harding, captain Sophie Ingle and many others, and he was presented with a signed shirt by the squad before kick off in a show of appreciation. Matikainen played a key role in creating a professional Natasha Harding in possession for Wales (Will Cheshire). environment for the women's game in Wales, and he can take great pride in how his work provided the foundations for the team today.

The intentions were clear from the opening exchanges that Wales were determined to make a fast start to this international friendly, and the attacking formation that left just Hayley Ladd and Anna Filbey to marshal the defence caused problems for the visitors.

Natasha Harding, Kayleigh Green and captain Sophie Ingle all asked questions of Estonian goalkeeper Karina Kork in the opening ten minutes, but Kork's form continued throughout the half as Wales continued to relentlessly attack, and she later denied Josie Green from opening the scoring before half time.

With Rhiannon Roberts playing in a wider role and Ingle pushed forward in the middle of midfield, Estonia were forced to take on a physical approach to prevent themselves from being overrun. However, they remained solid and organised despite enjoying little possession, and Ludlow's side were becoming increasingly frustrated as the opening half came to a close.

Helen Ward replaced Kayleigh Green in attack for the second half, but the frustration in front of goal continued as Estonia defended resolutely against wave after wave of Wales attacks. As the match wore on, it was clear that the confidence of the visitors was increasing as their game plan was having the desired effect.

Roberts, Angharad James and Megan Wynne all tried their luck from the edge of the area early in the second half without success. However, the deadlock was finally broken on 68 minutes when Wynne capitalised on a loose ball in the area after Kork had saved a header from substitute Ffion Morgan. The relief was evident as the continued pressure paid off.

Substitute Nadia Lawrence added the second from close range on 76 minutes after an excellent run from James on the right. Further chances followed for the home side, but the next cheer from the 2,015 in attendance would follow the final whistle as the side claimed a victory on their return to north Wales.

Women's and girl's football in north Wales has experienced an exciting growth in recent years, and the hunger to support the national team was clearly evident as 2,015 fans came out on a cold night at the Racecourse. Although it didn't break the attendance record for a women's home international friendly in Wales, with hundreds of youngsters having the opportunity to cheer on their heroes live, the decision to take the side across the country has been another important step forward for the women's game. A victory certainly helped too.

The Women’s FA Cup Road to the Final ARSENAL v TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR Tottenham Hotspur claimed their place in the quarter finals for the first time as they won 5-0 against Coventry Utd. Rianna Dean scored a hat-trick, with Siri Worm and Lucia Leon adding the others, as Tottenham booked a North London derby tie with Arsenal in the last eight, the Gunners having reached this stage with a 2-0 victory against Lewes.

Arsenal Ladies FC were formed in 1987 by Vic Akers, who enjoyed a 22-year stint as manager of the club prior to moving upstairs to a general manager role in 2009. Vic now assumes the role of Honorary President of Arsenal Ladies. Under Akers, the Gunners collected a stunning 33 major trophies - including a domestic and European quadruple in 2007. His total haul included a UEFA Women’s Cup, three domestic trebles, 12 Premier League titles, 10 FA Cups and 10 League Cups. It was a remarkable set of achievements that cemented Arsenal Ladies as the foremost women’s football club in this country.

At present the Gunners have won 44 trophies in their 31-year history. None of this could have happened without the backing and support of Arsenal Football Club itself.

In 2014, former player and development manager Clare Wheatley was offered the General Manager's role after 18 years at the club. Clare oversees a staff of nine, who all work solely to develop and co-ordinate the club’s female side.

Arsenal’s most decorated year was the 2006-07 season when they secured the historic quadruple to mark their 20th anniversary. The Gunners - with probably the best women's team this country has ever seen - became the first British team to win the UEFA Women’s Cup, beating Swedish side Umea 1-0 over a two-legged final.

The 2011 season was a groundbreaking one for the Gunners, and for the women’s game in general. It was the inaugural year of the Women’s Super League (WSL), which Arsenal won after fighting out a close battle with Birmingham City and perennial rivals Everton. There was further success in 2012 when the Ladies won the WSL yet again and the Continental Cup for the third time in three years in 2013.

They then added the FA Cup twice consecutively in 2013 and 2014. The Gunners then won the Continental Cup in 2015 in Pedro Martinez Losa's first full season, which also marked a decade of success. Arsenal won the SSE Women's FA Cup in 2016 with a 1-0 victory over Chelsea in the Final at Wembley Stadium, thanks to a stunning goal from Danielle Carter.

Joe Montemurro took over as manager in November 2017 and continued the club's tradition of winning major trophies, lifting the Continental Tyres Cup for a fifth time and last season, they recaptured the FA WSL title for the first time in seven years.

LEICESTER CITY v MANCHESTER CITY Manchester City proved to be too strong for a valiant Ipswich Town side in the Fifth Round with a 10-0 win ended the FAWNL Division One South East side's superb cup run. The holders will continue the defence of the trophy against Championship opposition in the quarter finals, against Leicester City Women who created the shock of the round when a Paige Bailey-Gayle double gave them a 2-1 victory over Reading FC Women.

Leicester City WFC achieved four successive promotions since they were founded in 2004, they gained promotion into the FA Women's Premier League in 2008. They finished fifth in their first season in the Northern Division (Second Tier) before three consecutive third place finishes. After relegation in 2013, Leicester City WFC dropped into the Midlands Combination - which due to the introduction of the FA Women's Super League meant they were now playing fourth tier football. Having gone through a succession of Managers in the 2012-13 season, the Club appointed A Licensed coach Stuart Wilson in the Summer of 2013 with the ambition of getting the club back into the Northern Division at the first time of asking. When Stuart Wilson left in the Summer of 2014, Reserves manager Jonathan Morgan stepped

up to take charge of First Team affairs in a 'Management Trio' along with James and Ryan who also stepped up from the Reserves.

After a number of squad changes for the 2015-16 season, Leicester City WFC started brightly picking up three wins in August, scoring 20 goals and conceding just one. The Foxes continued their fine form through until Christmas, losing just once in the opening four months, a league cup match against Bradford City from the Division above. Despite being knocked out of the County Cup and FA Cup in successive weeks early in 2016, Leicester City WFC maintained their incredible 100% record in the league and confirmed promotion back to the Northern Division with a 10-0 win over Rotherham United Ladies.

In May 2018, Leicester City Women were awarded a licence for Tier 2 following an extensive application process. The Foxes were one of five new teams to be added to the new FA Women's Championship.
