Tottenham boss Rehanne Skinner believes the first 20 minutes of the second half were pivotal in their 3-1 loss to Chelsea.
Spurs had gone ahead at the Hive thanks to a Sophie Ingle own goal before Guro Reiten pulled Chelsea back level.
Ann-Katrin Berger was sent off in the 33 rd minute after colliding with Rachel Williams, but goals from Sam Kerr and Jessie Fleming kept Chelsea’s title defence on track.
