Chelsea produced a fightback worthy of the Women’s Super League title they are on course to winning, to beat a Manchester City side that will feel aggrieved about a particularly controversial first-half incident.
The Chelsea midfielder Erin Cuthbert won a thrilling game with a late header that sent the away fans into raptures. Long before that decisive moment, however, City were understandably baffled and frustrated after Jess Park expertly curled the ball into the top corner from just outside the penalty area only to realise the referee, Kirsty Dowle, had stopped play for a free-kick, moving to blow her whistle just as Park was connecting with her shot.
