Arsenal’s 1-1 draw against Brighton hands City title
Andrée Jeglertz’s side still have chance of Double
Manchester City are WSL champions for the first time in 10 years, after Arsenal were held to a frustrated draw at Brighton.
It is not the nicest way to win a league title, but City will not care. Their only previous WSL title was won in 2016 and they have had six runners-up finishes since, as well as second place in the shortened Spring Series as the competition moved from its previous summer scheduling.
On 16 May there will be a party atmosphere in Dagenham instead of a tense one, their final game of the season against West Ham turned into an exhibition match instead of a must-win thanks to Arsenal’s dropped points.
