Chelsea leapfrogged Manchester United to second place in the Women's Super League (WSL) after Lexi Potter's decisive goal in a 2-1 comeback win over Brighton. The 19-year-old midfielder, making her first senior start, scored in the 39th minute to secure the victory, with Aggie Beever-Jones and Alyssa Thompson providing assists. The result tightens the title race, as Chelsea now trail leaders Arsenal by just two points with six games remaining.

Meanwhile, Manchester United's bid faltered after a 0-0 draw at West Ham, despite a dominant League Cup run culminating in Sunday's final win. Kinga Szemik's unyielding defense and missed chances by Melvine Malard highlighted the gap between the top four and the rest.
