Arsenal claim victory over Spurs as North London derby breaks WSL attendance record
Arsenal claimed a 2-0 victory over Spurs as the North London derby set a new Women's Super League attendance of 38,262.
Two goals from the visitors on Women's Football Weekend made it an occasion to remember for the defending champions.
The record number of fans eclipsed Manchester City's set in the first round of the WSL this season.
Arsenal had chances in the first half, their most promising from England international Jordan Nobbs, who was denied by Spurs keeper Rebecca Spencer.
The Gunners' persistence paid off in the 66th minute when captain Kim Little struck a stunning goal to break the home side's resistance.
Arsenal then doubled their lead through Vivianne Miedema after she calmly slotted home in the 82nd minute.
Arsenal's WSL campaign is now back on track after their defeat to Chelsea knocked them off top spot a few weeks ago.
