Last Gasp Thunderbolt Stops Man City Women Just Two Minutes Short of Unbeaten Domestic Season

Having already been crowned champions of the Women's Super League with a game to spare, Arsenal finished the season in style with a late winner in their 1-0 win over Manchester City to inflict their first league defeat.

In what was a tight game between the league's top two, Emma Mitchell's stunning 25-yard strike sealed the win for the Gunners two minutes from time to cap a memorable season for the north London club.

City, who had won the Women's FA Cup a week earlier, were one game away from going the domestic season unbeaten, having won 14 and drawn five of their 19 previous league games ahead of the final day in addition to success in both cup competitions.
