Thompson strike seals Chelsea win to end Arsenal's unbeaten run

Alyssa Thompson delivered the decisive moment for Chelsea as they handed Arsenal a 1-0 defeat in the Women's Super League, halting their opponents' twenty-match unbeaten run that dated back to October 2025. Arsenal had dominated the opening phase through efforts hitting the woodwork from Kim Little and Mariona Caldentey before Thompson capitalized on a saved Keira Walsh long-range attempt.

Anneke Borbe could only watch as the rebound fell directly to the goalscorer inside the area. The visitors pressed after halftime through Chloe Kelly and Alessia Russo, yet the home defense held firm to secure all three points at Stamford Bridge.

The outcome moves Chelsea within two points of league leaders Manchester City, leaving Arsenal seven points back prior to their upcoming fixture against the champions.
