The announced shock did not really take place: Manchester City was in demonstration against the reigning champion, Chelsea, on February 1st. And gets closer to the crown.
Kerolin 1 time, Kerolin 2 times, Kerolin 3 times. In the wake of the Brazilian star, who achieved the hat-trick this Sunday, Manchester City scattered Chelsea in a puzzle fashion, who nevertheless seemed to be able to put up good resistance to the ambitious club from the north of England.
No, Sonia Bompastor suffered a big 5-1 defeat, greatly reducing her hopes of a second consecutive national title. Kerolin was not the only one to shine offensively since Miedema (a goal and an assist) and Shaw also found the fault against an overwhelmed Hampton. The Blues had possession and tried their luck on goal 14 times, but only Thompson saved what remained of honor in the rout.
