Goals from Aggie Beever-Jones and Erin Cuthbert gave Chelsea a 2-0 win at West Ham that saw them regain top spot in the Women’s Super League
The West Ham manager, Rehanne Skinner, said she is “getting sick” of poor Women’s Super League officiating after her side were denied a first-half equaliser by an incorrect offside call, before Chelsea went on to secure a 2-0 win.
Emma Hayes welcomed back Mayra Ramírez and Nathalie Björn who were deemed fit enough for the bench and made three changes to the team which secured a 3-0 defeat of Ajax on Tuesday night.Chelsea’s attempt to go six wins from six games in March, with two still to play this month, got off to a quick start, but it was far from one-way traffic for the reigning champions.
“It’s not good enough, the bottom line is if that’s how I operated in my job, I wouldn’t be in my job,” said an outraged Skinner. “It’s a frequent occurrence … Apologies post the game don’t change the outcome.” The task was a big one, with the visiting team unbeaten in their past 11 WSL games against West Ham, going back to 2018, with 10 wins and one draw against their London rivals, but West Ham were not a pushover at the Chigwell Construction stadium.
