40 h. ago WSL clockwatch: Spurs v Brighton, London City Lionesses v Liverpool and more – as it happened

London City Lionesses snatched a late winner against Liverpool, while in the Championship, Ipswich beat Norwich for the first time in 16 yearsThere were some pretty unhappy scenes in the EFL yesterday, namely at Hillsborough where play was stopped for five minutes due to the latest fan protest against Sheffield Wednesday owner Dejphon Chansiri. It was a miserable afternoon for Owls fans as their side was shellacked 5-0 by visitors Coventry. Steve Bruce also had a bad day. Blackpool’s poor start to the season continued with a 2-0 home defeat against AFC Wimbledon and afterwards Bruce was dismissed from his position at Bloomfield Road. Blackpool fans, who do you want to see come in? Still plenty of time to turn the season around. Wednesday fans, I’m sorry, you have my deepest sympathies.On the subject of doing the opposite, how are Ipswich fans feeling about today? Will the Old Farm hoodoo finally be broken?

Get in touch with an emailAngus Fontaine sets the scene from an Australian perspective.To beat New Zealand at home, all the stars must align.

James O’Connor and Will Skelton were allowed to return to their clubs Leicest...
