Holders Arsenal eased into the Semi-Finals of the League Cup with a 4-0 win over Keynsham as Julie Fleeting returned in style following the birth of her child.
Fleeting netted a first-half brace, breaking the deadlock in the 25th minute after the Southern Division side had kept Arsenal at bay in the opening stages.
The Scotland striker's close-range finish after a scramble in the box was followed four minutes later by a smart turn and finish. Katie Chapman made it 3-0 just before the break to effectively end the tie as a contest.
Kim Little completed the scoring after 78 minutes, putting the Gunners into the draw for the last four.
