Tottenham moved level on points with north London rivals Arsenal in the Women's Super League after coming out on top in a 10-goal thriller with Aston Villa on Sunday, earning a stunning 7-3 triumph. With Arsenal's game against Brighton later in the day postponed due to a waterlogged pitch, Martin Ho's side took full advantage with a brilliant attacking display at Villa Park.
Arsenal were denied the opportunity to eat into Manchester City's lead at the top of the Women's Super League on Sunday, as their trip to Brighton was postponed. A waterlogged surface at Broadfield Stadium rendered the fixture unplayable, frustrating the Gunners' attempts to respond to Man City's 6-0 rout of Leicester City on Friday. Arsenal are 13 points behind City but now have two games in hand on the runaway leaders, who they defeated 1-0 last weekend to spark slim hopes of a fightback in the title race.
I think it's probably not a question for me to answer. Maybe some other people in the club can answer that question. But for sure, every player and member of staff, recognise what Paul did for this club and all the success he brought from the beginning. We are all really thankful for that. I think he laid the foundations from the beginning and has been a huge part of the success of this club. I think he will be missed at this club for sure.
London City Lionesses welcome Manchester City to Hayes Lane on Sunday in the Women's Super League. With another exciting transfer for the newly-promoted side, the spotlight will be on whether London City's new signing Delphine Cascarino plays, and how new head coach Eder Maestre, fares against the league leaders. Manchester City arrive six points clear at the top of the table and will be determined to maintain their cushion as the title race continues.
LONDON, England -- The real winner from Arsenal's surprise 2-0 win over Chelsea didn't make a shot, pass or tackle at Stamford Bridge on Saturday. The true victors were Manchester City, who can now take a nine-point lead at the top of the Women's Super League (WSL) with a victory this weekend. Despite a poor season and a host of injuries, Arsenal capitalised on Chelsea's wastefulness to register their first away win in this fixture since 2018.
There were some forced changes to Arsenal's starting XI, with Olivia Smith's suspension and Frida Maanum's illness adding to injuries to several key players, including the England duo Leah Williamson and Chloe Kelly. Despite their depleted number, Renee Slegers's side were dominant in possession, at times weaving together some lovely patterns of play. However, the end product was notably absent once again, the Gunners searching for the eye-of-a-needle pass through Chelsea's stoic and well-balanced back three of Lucy Bronze, Naomi Girma and Millie Bright.
"One of the main things we learned throughout this process is that it is about giving our fans the choice. "It is a great example of the women's game being different to the men's game - both from a legislation point of view but also a chance to innovate and do some really cool stuff. "It was putting the choice back in the fans' hands and letting them tell us what they think. You don't know unless you have tried these things."
She has done really well. Of course she has her super strength -- she's very fast and with that speed she can still create and be controlled and balanced. So she's a really, really good player ... made a great impact for Chelsea and really shown herself in the WSL. So we'll have to look out for her [on Saturday]. We have to find the right ways to stop her.
Some of the richest clubs in women's football saw their revenues increase by 35% last year, with Arsenal generating the largest revenue in Europe for the first time since Deloitte began charting the top earners in the women's game. The north London side had revenues of 25.6m (22.2m), narrowly overtaking Chelsea, thanks largely to their 7m of matchday revenue, which was nearly twice as much as anyone else, boosted by their move to play all of their home league fixtures at the Emirates Stadium.
Today, they sit level on points with third-placed Arsenal after collecting 23 from 12 matches and the two north London sides are separated only by goal difference. So this question does not feel outrageous: can Spurs secure a place in next season's Champions League with a top-three finish? The club's transformation under Martin Ho, who took over last summer after Spurs finished second bottom in 2024-25, has been remarkable.
