Chelsea Regains Form with 2-0 Win Over Tottenham as Madonna Watches On
In a much-needed boost to their Women's Super League title hopes, Chelsea secured a 2-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The Blues' win, coupled with Manchester City's 1-0 loss to Arsenal earlier on Sunday, has narrowed the gap between them and leaders City.
The match saw Keira Walsh and Alyssa Thompson score either side of half-time for Chelsea, ending a streak of back-to-back defeats for Sonia Bompastor's team. Despite being nine points adrift from City, the nine-point win leaves Chelsea fifth in the table, but with renewed momentum.
Madonna, the 67-year-old pop icon, watched her daughters Estere and Stella play for Tottenham earlier on Saturday before attending the senior women's team match on Sunday. While she failed to capitalize on early momentum, her presence is a testament to growing interest in the WSL.
Chelsea's victory was built around impressive performances from Erin Cuthbert's corner, which was half-cleared before Walsh struck from 12 yards out. Thompson capitalized on a rebound to double Chelsea's lead after Sjoeke Nรผsken's shot was saved by Lize Kop.
The win marked Liverpool's fourth league victory of the season as they moved off the bottom spot with a convincing 4-1 home win against Aston Villa, while West Ham staged an impressive comeback to beat Brighton 3-2 and leapfrog Leicester into the lower half of the table.
