Two games remain in the race for Women’s Super League promotion, and after a critical weekend in the Women’s Championship for the three teams at the top, Bristol City have edged that much closer to seizing the coveted ticket to the English top-flight.
Bristol City, London City and Birmingham City have entered the final furlong of the Women’s Championship and the third to last weekend was filled with plenty of drama for all three sides as the penultimate weekend rolls into view.
Top-of-the-table Bristol City smashed lower-table Sunderland 5-0 to keep their chokehold on promotion alive and well, but the shock of the weekend arrived in London City losing to Southampton 1-0, Katie Wilkinson popping up with the dramatic 83rd-minute winner.
