(Reuters) - The referee of a women's Super League match has apologised after awarding Liverpool an extraordinary opportunistic long-range goal, from a re-start kick-off, as opponents Birmingham were still celebrating a goal of their own.
The goal stood in a 2-1 win for Liverpool that lifted them to second, within a point of leaders Chelsea, in the English Football Association (FA) Women's Super League. Losers Birmingham are a further point adrift in third.
