Katie Zelem’s leadership can push Manchester United on after turbulent WSL season

United lost 4-2 in their final league game against Chelsea, despite leading 2-1 at half-time. However, Zelem recognised the significance of United going into the second half with a fighting chance against the eventual WSL champions.
