    Highlights from the Women's Super League match between Leicester and Aston Villa

    Rachel Daly scored the only goal of the game as Aston Villa won at Leicester to leapfrog the hosts and go seventh in the WSL table.

    Daly struck early in the first half with an unstoppable effort after a measured cross into the area from Adriana Leon.

    Leon was unplayabale at times during the first half and also had two efforts saved by Leicester goalkeeper Janina Leitzig after the break.

    Yuka Momiki almost got a goal on her WSL debut, but Villa goalkeeper Daphne Van Domselaar made a smart save in the second half to thwart the Japan forward.

    Ava Baker had an instinctive effort cleared off the line by Sarah Mayling late on as Villa held on to make it four wins in their last six league games.

    Both sides return to cup action in midweek.
