Champions in waiting. Chelsea have one hand on the Women’s Super League trophy after a 2-0 victory over Arsenal at Kingsmeadow.
What has been arguably the most exciting title race in the league’s history could come to an end this evening if Manchester United fail to beat Manchester City. It is surely a matter of when, not if, Emma Hayes’ side will get to celebrate a fourth consecutive league title. Even if they are made to wait a further six days, it feels inevitable Chelsea will beat bottom-of-the-table Reading next weekend.
