Arsenal suffered a disappointing 1-0 loss at the hands of title rivals Manchester United on Wednesday evening and their title hopes hang in the balance as the hosts extended their lead at the top of the table.
With just 15 minutes gone, the Gunners were handed another huge injury blow as Leah Williamson was forced off. The early change impacted proceedings and neither team was able to get a real foothold on the game until the brink of halftime.
Alessia Russo, at her clinical best, fired the hosts in front after some good build-up play from Nikita Parris down the right. Arsenal were in need of a big second half and Jonas Eidevall rung in the changes with Jen Beattie and Steph Catley called upon at the break.
