Elsewhere, Chelsea thrashed London Bees and Manchester City made light work of Leicester City, while Bristol City saw past Sheffield United and West Ham cruised to victory over Lewes.
Tottenham were held at home to Brighton but won on penalties for extra points and Charlton beat Millwall in a high-scoring affair. The likes of Crystal Palace and Durham earned narrow wins at Yeovil and Everton respectively.
Manchester City go top of Group One North, while winless Aston Villa prop up the table. Chelsea are top of Group One South, with Brighton and Yeovil at the foot of the table with only a point to their name.
In Group Two North, Reading’s win puts them top of the table. Everton and Liverpool have yet to get off the make and make up the last two places.
Lewes just about top Group Two South, but Arsenal could overtake them if they win their game in hand.
