Arsenal Ladies - 14 Reading Royals - 1

Arsenal Ladies, the fourth best Ladies team on the planet (yes honest - according to the latest FIFA rankings), completely overpowered their Southern League opponents this afternoon with the fourteen goals coming from Lianne Sanderson and Gemma Davison with 4 apiece, Jayne Ludlow with a brace and Anita Asante, Gill Flaherty, Rachel Yankey and Sian Larkin contributing singles.

Readings consolation came towards the end of the game where Arsenal Ladies only had 10 players on the pitch having used all their substitutions when Danielle Buet had to go off injured.

Arsenal Ladies now face Birmingham Ladies in the quarter-final which is next week - Sunday Feb 11th with a noon kickoff at Borehamwood (so you can all still get to the Emirates for the 4pm mens kickoff!!)
