Match Report
High five and super six! What a way for a legendary Chelsea career to reach its climax!
With a 6-0 win at Old Trafford, the Blues say farewell to Emma Hayes by securing our fifth WSL title in a row, due to a +7 better goal difference than Manchester City.

Before long, Johanna Rytting Kaneryd used her considerable pace to race away and slot the second goal and although Manchester United struck the Chelsea woodwork, it was 4-0 in our favour by the break.
