Chelsea manager Sonia Bompastor has conceded the Women's Super League title race is "gone" after her side fell to Arsenal at Stamford Bridge. Despite the loss, she insisted her team "will never give up" for the remainder of the season.

The defeat hands a significant advantage to league leaders Arsenal, who have now opened up a commanding points gap at the summit. For a Chelsea side accustomed to domestic dominance, this result represents a major setback in their pursuit of another WSL trophy.

Bompastor's frank admission sets a clear tone for the final stretch. While the championship appears out of reach, the focus shifts to securing a top-two finish and maintaining pride. The manager will demand a response in upcoming fixtures to salvage a strong campaign.
