Chelsea Women 2-0 Defeat Man City Women: Goals from Mayra Ramirez and Guro Reiten Lift Sonia Bompastor's Squad to the Top of the WSL Standings

Sonia Bompastor, following in the footsteps of Emma Hayes as Chelsea manager, has made history in the WSL by securing a remarkable seven-game winning streak. This achievement was made possible by the team's strong performance in the second half, with goals from Mayra Ramirez and Guro Reiten just four minutes apart sealing the victory.

Chelsea needed the individual brilliance of Ramirez to unlock the game, billed by some as a title decider in the build-up, as the striker shrugged off City defender Alanna Kennedy before firing into the far corner after carrying the ball from halfway.

Reiten then delivered a pinpoint effort from the edge of the box to deliver the killer blow. City struggled to keep up with Chelsea as the game wore on and could have easily conceded a third.

City's Khadija Shaw, the WSL's top scorer, failed to punish two misplaced Chelsea passes in the first half, pulling her shot wide initially before putting too much on a pass when playing in Jil Roord.

Chelsea, victors in all seven of their WSL games at Stamford Bridge, claim a decisive win that leaves them two points clear of City with a game in hand.
