Arsenal cruised to a comfortable 3-1 victory at the Emirates to reignite their title challenge. In a controlled performance in front of a record-breaking 60,160 crowd they put three first-half goals past a disappointing Manchester United. An own goal from Geyse gave the hosts an early lead before Cloé Lacasse and a Kim Little penalty sealed the points. Lucía García scored a late consolation goal for the visitors.
With Manchester City’s narrow win over Chelsea the previous evening, the title race had been blown wide open. It was a result that gave Arsenal an opportunity to haul themselves right back into the conversation, one which they grabbed with both hands.
