Liverpool stunned Chelsea on Sunday by beating the defending Women's Super League champions to 2-1 at Prenton Park.
The Blues were expected to start their campaign with a victory against the newly promoted side and opened the scoring early on through England international Fran Kirby. Yet a pair of second-half penalties from Katie Stengel completed a sensational comeback.
Much was expected of Liverpool after their promotion to the WSL. Matt Beard's side stormed to the Championship title last season by winning 16 of their 22 games, losing just twice. Even Emma Hayes waxed lyrical about the Reds before the game.
