When Chelsea, with Jonna Andersson as well as team captain Magdalena Eriksson in the starting eleven, today received the newcomer and the Manchester United comeback (with Lotta Ökvist on the bench), 4,790 spectators had made their way to Kingsmeadow.

Thus, the league gained a new audience record, regarding matches in the team's regular arenas. That's what AP Reporter Rob Harris wrote on Twitter. However, several higher audience figures have been noted when matches have been played in the men's Premier League arenas.

Even match

The 4,790 spectators will not be disappointed. The match was well played and even. Manchester United embraced the match best, but after the first half, Chelsea took over and deserved the lead on penalty after 64 minutes. However, it was not too far away that goalkeeper Mary Earps took the mediocre penalty, but the ball went into goal via Earp's hands.

During the final stage of the match, United had a lot of ball, and were actually really close to acknowledging with ten minutes left. Ella Toone struck with a rocky volley, but Chelsea's German goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger managed to direct the shot into the bar.

With the win, Chelsea retain the series lead, one point ahead of Manchester City.
