Ornella Vignola opened the scoring early on in the second period, but Mouchon's late goal meant the points were shared on Filbert Way.

Tenth in the standings with four points, the late strike gives us confidence heading into our shortest away trip of the season next Sunday, when we face Aston Villa at Villa Park, for a 12pm BST kick-off.

Rantala makes first WSL start in a year

Jutta made her first WSL start in almost a year.

In need for options in attack, Jutta Rantala's return to fitness is very welcome for Rick Passmoor, who gave the Finnish forward the nod to start a WSL game for the first time in 365 days; her last time in the XI coming a year ago on Filbert Way when we lost out to Crystal Palace.

Rantala has played this season, building minutes against Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur, with her only other start coming in the Subway Women's League Cup, when our No.8 netted a second-half goal against Ipswich Town.

Everton break the deadlock

We came from behind to draw with the Toffees.

Goalless at the break, it was Everton to take the advantage early on in the second half through Vignola. A fortunate break for the Spaniard, who didn't give up on a half opportunity, she stole the ball away from Chantelle Swaby and fired in from close range.

Holding on for most of the second half, the Foxes pressure continued to build and a double substitution in the final 10 minutes proved to be crucial to the scoreline.

Mouchon's late equaliser

It's been a long and hard road for our French centre-forward, who after joining in the summer of 2024, missed the majority of the previous campaign with an ACL injury, but she is slowly working her way back up to full match fitness.

Making her first Filbert Way appearance in almost a year last week, this Sunday she went one better and scored a fantastic equaliser to earn us our fourth WSL point of the term.

Picking up the ball in the Everton half, she drove forward, bullying her way through the Toffees backline before firing low under Emily Ramsey. Wheeling off in celebration in front of the Blue Army, the tears at full-time mark the start of a new chapter for Mouchon, as we picked up a well-deserved point.
