LAUREN JAMES grabbed a stoppage-time winner yesterday as Chelsea battled from a goal down to beat Everton 2-1 at Kingsmeadow and maintain their seven-point lead at the top of the Women’s Super League.

The visitors threatened to cause an upset when Kelly Gago burst down the left wing in the 51st minute and unleashed a fine effort into the top corner against the run of play.

But Sonia Bompastor’s side rallied with Mayra Ramirez equalising just after the hour mark in what was the leaders’ first real chance of note.
