Rachel Johnstone (Hearts): Had the difficult job of coming on at half-time on Sunday night against Glasgow City, but put in a sturdy display with a couple of superb saves to deny Leanne Ross’ side in the second half and help Hearts to a huge win.
Eilidh Austin (Rangers): Another impressive performance under the belt for the teenager. Shifted into the centre of defence for Monday’s Old Firm – having excelled at full-back – but neither the position nor the occasion fazed her.
Danique Ypema (Hearts): Nicked Georgia Timms shooting boots? A simply sensational goal which proved to be the historic match-winner as Eva Olid’s side beat City for the first time, while moving to the top of the table.
Demi Falconer (Partick Thistle): The leader in a strong Thistle back line. Gary Holt’s side more than deserved their first split point following narrow defeats to Celtic and Rangers. Falconer, as ever, played a key role in preserving the clean sheet.
Sophie Townsley (Motherwell): Two assists inside one minute as Motherwell hit Hamilton Accies for four in the Lanarkshire derby, which also signalled Accies relegation.
May Cruft (Rangers): An outrageous talent at 16. Ran the show – again – against Celtic, who just couldn’t get near her. Earned the penalty too, but it’s her overall composure and control which catches the eye. Rangers will be doing well to keep hold of the youngster over the summer.
Linda Motlhalo (Glasgow City): On the losing side, but looked the most lively for Leanne Ross’ side. Had a couple of half-chances she would have liked to have done better with and was denied what her boss called a “stonewall penalty”.
Demi Taylor (Montrose): Five minutes to go, Montrose 1-0 down. Taylor saw to that, setting up Sophia Martin for the equaliser before slamming in a 96th-minute winner to all-but secure the Mo’s SWPL safety.
Brogan Hay (Rangers): Back-to-back starts show a real step in the Scotland international’s recovery from a long-term layoff with injury. Set up Rangers’ opening goal with a nice pick-out.
Millie Boughton (Motherwell): Back-to-back braces for on-loan Hibs youngster Boughton, who is showing signs of a promising future. Curled one in straight from the corner before teeing up Jenna Penman for the Steelwoman’s fourth.
Katie Wilkinson (Rangers): Another hat-trick for a frankly ridiculous goal-machine. A deep header, a fantastic free-kick and a ferocious penalty secured a pivotal three points for Leanne Crichton’s side, who move just one point behind leaders Hearts.
