Chelsea’s winning start to WSL ended by Leicester draw

LEICESTER ended Chelsea’s 100 per cent record under coach Sonia Bompastor at the weekend after both sides settled for a 1-1 draw.

Missy Goodwin finished a well-worked team goal with a low finish in the 20th minute, but Chelsea pulled one back in the 77th minute through Wieke Kaptein’s long-range strike from just outside the box.

The Blues had won all nine of their league games so far this season and a late point means they still currently sit clear of title rivals Manchester City.
