Marc Skinner left fuming with officials after Man Utd lose crucial WSL title rivals clash

Marc Skinner said decisions from the referee cost his Man Utd side in their heavyweight WSL clash with holders Chelsea.

The Londoners claimed a 1-0 win thanks to Sam Kerr's superbly-taken 23rd-minute strike at Kingsmeadow. In a game of few chances, United often dominated possession but failed to find the equaliser, dropping to second in the WSL table.
