"City may have had 22 touches in the opposition box to Arsenal's 19 but they had only had one shot on target to Arsenal's four. To some extent though, they have a hall pass for that lack of solid decision-making because it's just so rare. Despite the defeat, City are sitting pretty at the top of the WSL table, their lead still a hefty eight points ahead of Manchester United."
"I know who I am, I don't need people outside my environment to tell me who I am. I will always make sure I give my best, said a defiant Sonia Bompastor after Chelsea returned to winning ways against Tottenham. I know I have the competence and the knowledge; I know the women's game and I do my best for Chelsea."
Manchester City suffered a rare 1-0 defeat to Arsenal despite dominating touches in the opposition box, registering only one shot on target to Arsenal's four. The loss does not imperil City's position; they remain eight points clear of Manchester United with a superior goal difference and a realistic path to retain the title across a 12-team, 22-game season. City's upcoming fixtures include bottom-placed Leicester and struggling Aston Villa. Chelsea returned to winning ways with a 2-0 victory over Tottenham, as Sonia Bompastor defended her competence amid speculation and celebrated a new contract. Chelsea converted chances despite Spurs outcreating them in the first half.
