Chelsea clinched their fifth consecutive Women’s Super League (WSL) title in a remarkable fashion, triumphing over Manchester United with a resounding 6-0 victory on the final day of the season. Emma Hayes, the manager of Chelsea, guided her team to this remarkable achievement by outperforming Manchester City in terms of goal difference.
This triumph not only signifies Chelsea’s dominance in the league but also marks Hayes’ seventh WSL title during her tenure as the manager of the club.
The match at Old Trafford showcased Chelsea’s superiority as Mayra Ramirez scored twice, while Johanna Rytting Kaneryd, Sjoeke Nusken, Melanie Leupolz, and Fran Kirby, who is set to depart from the club, also contributed with goals. Despite Manchester City’s 2-1 victory against Aston Villa, courtesy of goals from Mary Fowler and Lauren Hemp, they fell short by a margin of seven goals in the goal difference tally.
As Hayes concludes her time at Chelsea, she is now preparing to take charge of the United States women’s team ahead of the upcoming Olympic Games in Paris this summer.
Throughout her illustrious career with Chelsea, Hayes has amassed an impressive collection of seven league titles, five FA Cups, two League Cups, and a Community Shield.
