Vivianne Miedema's delightful double marked a momentous occasion for Arsenal as they cruised to a 4-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur in front of a record-breaking crowd at the Emirates Stadium.
Beth Mead and Rafaelle Souza also netted in front of a crowd of 47,367 that smashed the previous attendance record for a Barclays FA Women's Super League match. Arsenal took control from the start as a mistake from Amy Turner saw her misplaced pass give the hosts an early chance while the dangerous Mead also came close early on.
The home side’s number nine did not have to wait long to strike, however, her superb fifth-minute strike curling past Rebecca Spencer and into the corner to put Arsenal up 1-0. Katie McCabe soon saw a chance go over the bar as Arsenal continued to apply pressure, Kim Little firing into the side netting just before the half-hour mark.
