Stina Blackstenius netted a stoppage‑time winner that handed Arsenal a 1‑0 triumph over Everton in the Women’s Super League. The goal arrived in the third minute of added time after Arsenal endured three strikes on the crossbar, including two from Beth Mead in her final appearance at the Emirates. Blackstenius slipped the ball into the bottom corner to clinch all three points.

Controversy swirled as Lotte Wubben‑Moy played the ball from an offside position to Leah Williamson, who then collided with Everton keeper Courtney Brosnan. The impact left Brosnan sprawled outside her goal, allowing Blackstenius to sweep the rebound home. Sky Sports’ Izzy Christiansen called the sequence a “clear and obvious error,” suggesting the decision will sting Everton and sparked debate among officials.

The win propels Arsenal into second place with one match remaining, tightening the chase for the title. Everton stay rooted to mid‑table, forced to regroup ahead of the final round. Amid the drama, Beth Mead delivered an emotional farewell, thanking fans and reflecting on personal loss, underscoring the personal narratives that often accompany league battles as the club eyes a possible cup run.
