We made it five wins from the last six games in all competitions with a 3-0 north London derby victory at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday.
It took just two minutes for Alessia Russo to volley us into the lead before Frida Maanum slotted into the bottom left corner for 2-0.
Stina Blackstenius scored shortly after coming on as a second-half subtitute in a dominant derby display.
what happened
Mariona Caldentey, replacing Beth Mead in the starting XI after Tuesday’s 4-0 win at Juventus, created our opening goal when she found Russo inside the 18-yard box.
Our centre-forward made no mistake, nestling the ball into the bottom right corner on her left foot.
She coolly shot past Becky Spencer to double our lead during a confident, convincing, clinical first-half display.
We did invite Spurs into it though just beyond the half-hour mark, giving the ball away to Drew Spence who picked out Bethany England. The latter forced a great save from Daphne van Domselaar, who tipped the powerful strike over the bar with the ball destined for the top right corner.
The following set-piece led to another corner for the home side, taken by Eveliina Summanen. It came out to Jessica Naz, whose first-time effort was too soft to trouble our goalkeeper.
After Mariona and Katie McCabe both fired free-kicks straight into the midriff of Spencer at the other end, we went into the break with a two-goal cushion.
We made one change at half-time, Kyra Cooney-Cross coming on for Little, and the former was called into action early in the second half when she teed up McCabe, who hit another free-kick straight at Spencer.
Russo crossed for Caitlin Foord, who fired wide of the post, with half an hour to go following a neat passage of play. Both players then made way, with Mead and Blackstenius coming on to replace them.
Blackstenius almost made an instant impact, hooking the ball just over the bar after a brilliant run down the left by McCabe. Blackstenius did get her goal moments later, finding the back of the net courtesy of a clever touch from Mariona.
Spurs had a sight of goal when Summanen sent a free-kick to Spence, but her effort was comfortably caught by Van Domselaar. Renee Slegers then made another change, introducing Rosa Kafaji in place of Mariona.
Lotte Wubben-Moy came on for McCabe as our final change of the match with just over five minutes remaining.
