MANCHESTER, England, Nov 3 (Reuters) - Goals from Jess Park, Jill Roord and Bunny Shaw gave Manchester City a comfortable 3-0 win over Crystal Palace on Sunday that ensures they stay top of the Women's Super League (WSL) table ahead of Brighton & Hove Albion and third-placed Chelsea.

Park opened the scoring in the 40th minute and Roord added a second goal five minutes after the break before crossing for Shaw to head home in the 73rd minute to wrap up the three points.

Earlier in the afternoon Manchester United ( MANU ) came back from a goal down to draw 1-1 with Arsenal, while Brighton won 1-0 at home to Leicester City and a late own goal gave Tottenham Hotspur a 2-1 win over West Ham United.

With Aston Villa hosting Liverpool later on Sunday and Chelsea away to Everton in the late kick-off, City top the standings on 16 points from six games, three ahead of Brighton and four ahead of Chelsea.
