She scuffs her shot on the run and Musovic makes a comfortable save to her left. “In theory, Paramount+ has the US broadcast rights to the WSL,” says Joe Pearson, “but they apparently don’t think this top of the table clash is worth their notice. Blackstenius runs at a backpedalling Chelsea defence and slips a lovely reverse pass through to Hurtig in the area. Foord cuts inside from the left, slithers past Charles and thrashes a right-foot shot from a tight angle that is claimed at the second attempt by Musovic. She robs Rafaelle in her own half, swerves elegantly past Catley and makes for the penalty area.

Arsenal 1-1 Chelsea: Emma Hayes' side stay top of the table after the Australian's late equaliser.
James carried Chelsea’s threat on the right wing and at first looked to have the beating of Arsenal whenever she got on the ball. They were swarmed in the first half and struggled to respond to the controversial penalty decision.

Although Arsenal’s opener was hugely controversial, the hosts created the majority of the chances at the Emirates and had the edge over their London rivals on the balance of play. Chelsea were aggrieved at referee Emily Heaslip’s decision to award a penalty for Niamh Charles’s challenge on Caitlin Foord, which was clearly outside of the box, but they instead finished the afternoon celebrating a precious point. It is often in the biggest of games where Chelsea’s striker makes her most decisive interventions, and in the Women’s Super League those don’t come much bigger than against Arsenal and in front of more than 45,000 at the Emirates.
