Arsenal delivered a 7-0 thumping of Leicester at the Emirates Stadium, with Stina Blackstenius and Smilla Holmberg each scoring twice. Frida Maanum marked her 100th WSL appearance with the opener before setting up teammates, while Mariona Caldentey and Leah Williamson also found the net as the Gunners dominated from start to finish.

The victory lifts Arsenal above Manchester United into third place, eight points behind leaders Manchester City but with two games in hand. This emphatic win sends a clear warning that the WSL title race remains fiercely contested, especially with manager Renee Slegers emphasizing the team's readiness to compete on multiple fronts ahead of their Champions League clash against Lyon.

Leicester's 15th defeat of the season condemns them to bottom place and a promotion/relegation playoff against one of WSL 2's top three teams. Manager Rick Passmoor acknowledged the disappointing performance while stressing the need for unity and confidence ahead of their crucial playoff match that will determine their top-flight status.
