In a historic repeat of their five-year dominance, Chelsea clinched their sixth Women's Super League title with a 1-0 victory over Manchester United. Sonia Bompastor, the former Lyon coach who took over from Emma Hayes, oversaw Chelsea's unbeaten run and ruthless mentality that has set them apart from their rivals. The solitary goal was scored by Lucy Bronze in the 74th minute, sending Leigh Sports Village into a frenzy of celebration. Chelsea's impressive statistics include scoring 33% of their goals in the final 15 minutes of matches and picking up eight points from losing positions - more than any other team in the league. Bompastor's leadership and tactical tweaks, such as encouraging more possession, a more aggressive press, and a less direct approach on the ball, have proven crucial to their success. This season, Chelsea remain on course to win the Treble, having already secured two trophies.
