Should have watched LFC women vs Chelsea women. Do we know how easy it is to get highlights/match replay?

An absolutely insane day in the WSL puts Chelsea back in control of their own destiny.

Arsenal, with basically nothing to play for, turned a 1-0 defeat against Man City into a 2-1 within with goals in the 89th and 91st.

Chelsea smiled, wished a nice thank you to Arsenal, and erased Man City's entire goal difference advantage with an 8-0 win.

Going into today, it was:

City: 52 points, 20 played, +46 goal difference
Chelsea: 46 points, 19 played, +38 goal difference

Coming out of it?

City: 52 points, 21 played, +45 goal difference
Chelsea: 49 points, 20 played, +46 goal difference.

If Chelsea win their game in hand away at Spurs on May 15, they will go into the final day top of the table with at least a +2 goal difference advantage (hopefully bigger).

Then it comes down to the final day, where City will need to either outdo Chelsea (if Chelsea drop points) or win by more goals than Chelsea do to close the goal difference gap.

The third tie-breaker, if goal difference ends level, is goals scored. Chelsea currently have +5 on City in that department.
