The Women’s Super League sixth match weekend got underway, where six more fixtures had massive results.
The Women’s Super League has completed its sixth match weekend, where all clubs took on vital tasks to claim points.
Going into this match weekend, Manchester City, Tottenham, Arsenal and Manchester United were all looking to keep up with leaders Chelsea, whose draw the week prior saw their lead go down to one point. Elsewhere, Liverpool would have been aiming to get their first points of the WSL, and for Brighton and London, they’d all would've wanted to keep gaining positive results.
Among the fixtures, we saw Manchester City take on Liverpool, Chelsea vs Tottenham, Arsenal meeting Brighton, and Manchester United vs Everton.
With the standings being so close and it still being very early in the league season, every result is very crucial for every side. Especially for the ones who will want to be contenders, getting the wins is what will keep them within reach of their opposition as the WSL goes on.
With these games all completed, this means the next WSL match weekend will arrive in a few weeks, as now these sides will be competing in the FA League Cup, where Manchester City play Newcastle, and London take on Leicester, to name some, and then, international break for the women will begin.
