Man City 1-1 Chelsea
Defending champions Chelsea scored deep into stoppage time to draw with Manchester City in the Women's Super League after two costly dismissals for the home side.
Guro Reiten poked in from close range after a scramble in the box to make it 1-1 in the 96th minute to cancel out Chloe Kelly's opener, after Alex Greenwood and Lauren Hemp had both been sent off for City.
It was a dramatic afternoon in Manchester in which Greenwood's first-half sending off changed the course of a match that City had dominated at Joie Stadium.
City captain Greenwood was shown a second yellow card for time-wasting in the 38th minute, before Hemp also received a second booking when she brought down Lauren James after 81 minutes.
The decision from referee Emily Heaslip to send off Greenwood was booed heavily by home supporters and led to three yellow cards being shown for dissent to City team-mates Kelly, Laia Aleixandri and Jill Roord.
Hemp's red card led to further reaction in the stands and manager Gareth Taylor was cautioned for dissent.
Leicester 1-0 Everton
Lena Petermann got the only goal as Leicester earned a narrow Women's Super League win against Everton at King Power Stadium.
Summer arrival Petermann's second-half strike gave Leicester manager Willie Kirk victory over his old club.
Everton's Justine Vanhaevermaet had a penalty saved by Petermann's fellow German Janina Leitzig at the end of the first half.
The Foxes made it two wins from two to jump to the top of the early standings, though Liverpool could join them if they beat Aston Villa later.
Tottenham 3-1 Bristol City
Tottenham secured their first victory under new boss Robert Vilahamn as they cruised past Women's Super League returnees Bristol City.
Summer signing Olga Ahtinen set Spurs on course for a comfortable afternoon when she hammered home the opener from range.
Martha Thomas scored her second in as many games after a mistimed clearance from Bristol goalkeeper Kaylan Marckese smashed off the Spurs striker's back and into the net.
Tottenham piled on the pressure and Eveliina Summanen extended their advantage on the stroke of half-time, curling a free kick into the top corner from the edge of the area.
Bristol improved after the second half as Spurs' intensity waned but the hosts remained mostly in command.
Amalie Thestrup pulled one back from the penalty spot after Summanen handled the ball in her own box but a comeback was out of reach for Bristol.
Brighton 0-2 West Ham
Goals in either half from Kirsty Smith and Riko Ueki helped West Ham to an impressive victory over Brighton at Broadfield Stadium.
Rehanne Skinner's first victory since replacing Paul Konchesky in the summer was full of energy and intensity, as her players executed an excellent tactical gameplan.
West Ham's pressing gave them an early foothold and remained a key theme throughout a physical match.
Skinner's side did not have to wait long for the opener. With just 12 minutes on the clock, Smith forced a rebound over the line after Sophie Baggaley parried Ueki's shot from outside the box into her path.
Ueki doubled their lead in the 51st minute with her first goal for the club, heading home Lisa Evans' pin-point free-kick.
Smith's day was cut short with a shoulder injury, but even that could not dampen what was a dominant display by the Hammers.
