Tottenham left Joe Montemurro’s side with no hope of a group stage best runner-up spot to progress to the quarter-finals.
The World Cup-winning striker Alex Morgan missed a penalty in the shootout for Spurs in the Group B encounter having come on at half-time. The Gunners twice took the lead, through Vivianne Miedema and Caitlin Foord, in normal time but two assists from Siri Worm, first for Ria Percival and then Shelina Zadorsky ensured the match went to penalties. In the Continental Cup, teams win three points for a win, two points for a draw and penalty victory, and one point for a draw and penalty defeat.
