Arsenal Women were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Aston Villa Women in the Women's Super League, with Alessia Russo's late header cancelling out Chastity Grant's first-half strike for the visitors.

Grant gave Aston Villa the lead in the first half, but Russo equalized deep into the match to salvage a point for Arsenal, who have now drawn several home games this season.

The result leaves Arsenal with another frustrating home draw in the league campaign.
