Arsenal and Liverpool produced five-star displays to cruise into the fifth round of the Women’s FA Cup.
England forward Beth Mead and Stina Blackstenius both scored twice as the Gunners thrashed Bristol City 5-0, with Frida Maanum also on target for the home side.
Sam Kerr scored her first goal for the club as Liverpool also ran out 5-0 winners at West Ham, who had Amber Tysiak sent off for a foul on Taylor Hinds in the 38th minute.

The home side were already 2-0 down at that point following an own goal from Camila Saez and Leanne Kiernan’s cool finish from a tight angle, with Grace Fisk and Lucy Parry also on the scoresheet before Kerr completed the rout.
Brighton ended their dismal recent run of form with a 4-1 win over Championship side Durham, the home side racing into a 3-0 lead after just 21 minutes thanks to goals from Bruna Vilamala and Guro Bergsvand either side of a Michelle Agyemang penalty.
Hannah Blake pulled one back for Durham in the second half, but Nikita Parris made it 4-1 in stopping time.
Everton knocked out last season’s runners-up Tottenham with a 2-0 win at Walton Hall Park, Kelly Gago scoring her first goal for the club and substitute Heather Payne sealing the victory in the 92nd minute.
