Women's FA Cup round-up: Chelsea and Spurs survive scares

There were no notable upsets in the Women's FA Cup fourth round as the top Women's Super League clubs progressed.

Cup holders and WSL leaders Chelsea required extra-time to beat London rivals West Ham, despite a dominant performance.

With the game level at 1-1 after 90 minutes, Erin Cuthbert and Sjoeke Nusken got the goals to send the Blues through.

Chelsea will hope for a kind draw in the fifth round as they look to win the FA Cup for a fourth successive year.

Asked about her side's performance against the Hammers, boss Emma Hayes said: "In the end, we looked comfortable winners.

"It looked like it had been three and a half or four weeks since we played."

Manchester United were emphatic 5-0 winners over Newcastle, with Ella Toone and Nikita Parris playing starring roles.

Manchester City followed suit, winning 4-0 at Durham thanks to a brace from Jill Roord as well as goals from Laura Coombs and Mary Fowler.

Fellow WSL title hopefuls Arsenal were equally convincing, dispatching Watford 5-1 at Meadow Park.

Liverpool got the better of Bristol City in a tighter contest, with Gemma Bonner scoring a late winner for the visitors, who had seen Ceri Holland sent off after an hour.

Tottenham, meanwhile, narrowly avoided an upset, coming from 2-0 down to beat Sheffield United 3-2 courtesy of Rosella Ayane's stoppage-time winner.

Elsewhere, Leicester were comfortable 4-0 victors at Derby and Brighton belied their poor WSL form with a thumping 6-0 win at Luton.
