In front of another Women's Super League record crowd of 59,042 at the Emirates Stadium, a stadium in which Sam Kerr had stood years before her move to Chelsea and wondered what it would look like with 60,000 fans in it, Eidevall's side delivered a stunning 4-1 win to put them level on points with the league leaders and rip the title race wide open.
Hayes will leave the Blues to take up the vacant US women's national team managerial role and if there were hopes of going six points clear of Arsenal and setting themselves on course for a procession to a fifth back-to-back title they were dashed by a lacklustre performance against a hungry side spearheaded by Alessia Russo with two goals.
