Arsenal Ladies completed their own 'Invincible' campaign on Sunday thanks to a 1-1 draw at Birmingham City.

Laura Harvey's team were crowned champions last weekend and ended the WSL season unbeaten after a close encounter with their closest rivals.

Birmingham took the lead 12 minutes before half-time when Emily Simpkins found the bottom corner from 15 yards.

Eni Aluko and Kerys Harrop also went close for the home side but Ellen White hauled Arsenal level four minutes into the second half with a clinical finish from inside the box.

The champions took control after that and had chances to win the match, but former Gunners keeper Rebecca Spencer denied Kim Little and Alex Scott.

The point was enough to secure second place for Birmingham - and qualification for next season's Women's Champions League.

And the WSL rivals will meet again on Wednesday when the campaign's final prize - the Continental Cup - will be at stake.
