DARK SECRETS: Lucy graham on target as everton bounce back with hard fought win over aston villa - The Real Truth

Everton Women earned their third league win of the season on Saturday with a narrow 1-0 victory over Aston Villa in the Women's Super League.

Captain Lucy Graham was on target in the second-half to secure a crucial three points in the West Midlands. The Blues fell to a disappointing defeat to current champions Chelsea last time out, but Brian Sorensen's side responded in perfect fashion at the Poundland Bescot Stadium.

Everton enjoyed more possession in the first-half as they looked to break down a resilient Aston Villa defence. Their first chance came with just 13 minutes gone on the clock as some positive build-up play from Jess Park ended with Katrine Veje having a go from distance, but her shot was comfortably held by Anna Leat.
