Manchester City Women vs Arsenal Women

Lionesses star Chloe Kelly comes up with epic response after being taunted by Man City fan following Arsenal's WSL defeat

Chloe Kelly was trying her best to get the last laugh against Manchester City, as she cheekily replied to the taunts of a fan account with a photo of her celebrating Arsenal's Champions League victory last summer. Kelly had come off the bench to level the scores against her previous employers on Saturday, but her dreams were dashed by Iman Beney's late winner, giving City a 3-2 win.

Iman Beney's first goal for Manchester City secured a dramatic late victory for Andree Jeglertz's side, moments after it had appeared they'd thrown away all three points. Arsenal had twice pegged the hosts back in a lively second-half but as the clock ticked towards the 90-minute mark, up stepped the summer signing from BSC YB Frauen to smash home and make it 3-2, keeping the pressure up on Chelsea at the top of the WSL table.

It looked like the script was written. With seven minutes remaining, Chloe Kelly had come back to haunt her former side, levelling things up for Arsenal at Manchester City with a superb strike that seemed to swing the momentum in the Gunners' favour. But the player who has so often been the hero in 2025, for club and country, would see her efforts reduced to a footnote as Iman Beney's even later effort condemned the north London side to a 3-2 defeat, one which ended their unbeaten start to the new Women's Super League season and leaves their title charge in a precarious position already.

Arsenal must quickly develop a ruthless streak to have any chance of beating serial winners Chelsea to the WSL title – starting away at Man City

Arsenal are only four games into their Women's Super League season and yet, their chances of seriously competing for the title are already under the microscope. That's because the Gunners, who won the Champions League back in May, have now dropped points in back-to-back weekends, with Saturday's disappointing 1-1 draw at home to Aston Villa ringing alarm bells.
