England v Northern Ireland: It’s been a while since we last got to see the Lionesses in something resembling a competitive fixture. England ran out comfortable 6-0 winners against a country ranked 43 places lower than them. Ellen White bagged a hat-trick, Jill Scott made her 150th international appearance and substitute Ella Toone converted a second half penalty on her senior debut with England barely moving out of third gear...
Chelsea extend their lead at the top of the WSL with a commanding win at Bristol City; Reading and Everton draw; two more games are lost to frozen pitches. We really are headed into the international break this time. D2B mops up the last two fixtures before Euro 22 qualifying recommences…
Normal service resumed at Chelsea with a convincing win over faltering Arsenal; Brighton get back to back wins for the first time this season; City overhaul United to go second after Manchester derby victory ; West Ham now in a scrap with Bristol City who’s match with Tottenham was ruled out by the weather; second City derby also postponed. Let your love flow: here’s your midweek catch-up in the Women’s Super League…
This is why we love the beautiful game. Just when every WSL match was looking like a foregone conclusion the top two are beaten at home – by Brighton and Reading respectively. Manchester City are right back in the title race winning at Arsenal; Villa claw further away from trouble with victory over Spurs; Bristol City get a point at West Ham; Everton and Birmingham play out a draw. Later than billed, it’s week 15 of the Women’s Super League…
Chelsea remain top of the WSL; Manchester United beat Everton to stay second; City coming up on the rails after thrashing West Ham; Bristol City get first WSL win of the campaign against toothless Brighton; Rehanne Skinner’s first league defeat as Spurs boss. Plus… PLUS midweek action. Hold on to your bobble hats. It’s week 14 of the Women’s Super League…
Unlucky for some, but not Manchester United, who took back top spot after a weekend of more postponements; City go third after hitting Brighton for seven; Villa and Reading share the spoils in the Saturday lunchtime fixture. All other games were snowed out… so take a number. It’s week 13 of the Women’s Super League…
Chelsea go top after victory against United; Hemp shines as Manchester City thrash Villa; Spurs win three straight; Bristol City’s woes continue at Everton; Reading hold the Gunners; still no home win for West Ham; Birmingham finally get a game on, but it’s no classic. Don’t adjust your screen. It’s week 12 of the Women’s Super League…
We should perhaps refer to this as the week 10-and-a-bit review. Why? Well, Chelsea beat Reading convincingly, and that’s it. Everything else was called off – a mixture of positive Coronavirus tests and / or teams unable to field the full complement of players through injury. Right let’s crack on with week 11-ish of the Super League...
Manchester United secure the Christmas number one spot, running riot against Bristol City; Arsenal go second with a comfortable victory over depleted Toffees; Jess Fishlock shines in Reading win at Brighton; two games postponed for COVID protocols; and Birmingham… er… don’t get to play again, because it rained… again. Happy Holidays, it’s week 10 of the FA Women’s Super League...
United stay top with a Galton masterclass; City’s late, late show pips Arsenal; Morgan on the spot again as Spurs grind out back-to-back victories; West Ham and Aston Villa both hit Bristol City for four; Chelsea’s Sam Kerr on target; Everton and Birmingham… er… don’t get to play because it rained. A LOT. It must be week nine of the FA Women’s Super League...
