Beth England joined Tottenham from Chelsea in the January transfer window

Tottenham Hotspur avoided a Women’s FA Cup banana skin as they overcame London City Lionesses in round four.

Bethany England headed the hosts in front early on at Brisbane Road, before Mana Iwabuchi doubled the advantage.

Drew Spence and Eveliina Summanen, plus an own goal from Lionesses captain Harley Bennett, completed the scoring.

This game had appeared ripe for an upset, with Spurs having lost their past five Women’s Super League matches while London City lead the Championship.

But Tottenham managed to comfortably steer themselves into the fifth-round draw on Monday evening.
