Records tumbled as an early-season north London derby took centre stage in the Women’s Super League (WSL) on Saturday afternoon. More than 53,000 tickets were sold for a one-sided contest at the Emirates Stadium, with the WSL’s previous highest attendance mark of 38,262, which was set when these two sides met at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium back in 2019, shattered with a crowd of 47,367.
