As the WSL hits its halfway point this weekend, a look at the state of the title race.
Is Chelsea's incredible run as champions of England coming to an end? Or will Man City let them back in? Still plenty of twists and turns to come, for sure...

Chelsea's grip on the WSL title is slipping - but are Man City strong enough to take advantage? | Goal.com
For a long time, it has felt like Chelsea's dominance of the Women's Super League would never end. This season, though, Manchester City could stop their incredible run of six titles in a row.

FT: Man Utd 0-3 Lyon
Scoreline reflects the game better in the end. United didn't have a shot on target all game and struggled to really lay a glove on Lyon, even if they got into the game more after the break. Melchie Dumornay was outstanding.

3-0, Dumornay. Clinical stuff. She's been outstanding, again

2-0, Dumornay with an absolutely beauty. Best player on the pitch all night and deserves to get on the scoresheet. That should do it for Lyon, with less than 10 minutes to go.

Miyazawa looks to be in as she nicks possession off Heaps, but it's good covering defending by Sombath. Endler does then kick the ball out of play trying to get it back to her defender and it produces a real roar from the home fans. Feels like the HT subs have lifted them a bit.

It's a triple Man Utd sub as Toone, Zigotti and Park all enter the game.
Off go Awujo, Williams and Naalsund, the latter of whom Giraldez was furious didn't get a second yellow just before the break.

HT: Man Utd 0-1 Lyon
Chawinga's header the difference at the break, giving Lyon a lead they fully deserve. Not had tons of chances besides that, with a Hegerberg header the most notable since, but in total control. Malard did have a good chance at the other end, but way over.

1-0 Lyon, Chawinga. Initially great defending by Riviere, who thwarts Hegerberg after Chawinga put her through on goal. But Lyon recycle it well and Engen delivers a lovely cross that Chawinga can glance in. Tullis-Joyce will want that one back.

FT: Arsenal 1-0 Twente
A little dicey at the end as Twente threw caution to the wind but Arsenal fully deserving of a win that should've been by a larger scoreline really, considering the chances created and dominance of the game. Gunners now within one point of UWCL top four.

HT: Arsenal 1-0 Twente
Strong performance from the Gunners. Pressing has been really good, with Twente unable to settle into any sort of rhythm and instead turning the ball over in dangerous areas. It's from those situations Arsenal have created a lot, including Mead's opener.

1-0 Arsenal, Beth Mead breaks the deadlock after 10 minutes. Twente started well enough but Arsenal have ramped up their pressing in the last few minutes it feels like and it pays dividends here, two mins after producing another Mead chance blocked on the line.

Arsenal host Twente in their penultimate Champions League league phase fixture. Important game for the reigning champs, 10th in table, three points off auto qualification for knockouts.
A result for Twente, who drew with Chelsea in Oct, would really boost their chances of sneaking into the top 12.

FT: England U23 2-4 USA U23
Great game that really opened up in the second half, the visitors just the more clinical side overall. Nice chance for the Young Lionesses to test themselves against non-European opposition, though.
