Madonna Takes in Chelsea's Win at Tottenham, Boosting WSL Hopes
Madonna made an appearance at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday, watching her daughters Estere and Stella play for Tottenham in an under-14 academy game the previous day. She then attended the senior women's team match against Chelsea, who secured a 2-0 victory that ended their run of back-to-back defeats.
Keira Walsh scored the opener from Erin Cuthbert's corner, which was half-cleared by Sjoeke Nüsken, before Alyssa Thompson doubled Chelsea's lead after Lize Kop saved her teammate's shot. The win saw Chelsea move to within nine points of leaders Manchester City, who suffered a 1-0 defeat against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
Despite being fifth in the table, Chelsea's victory was a welcome boost to their faint hopes of retaining the Women's Super League title. The match marked a much-needed turnaround for Sonia Bompastor's team, which had lost back-to-back games prior to the win.
In other matches, Liverpool edged Aston Villa 4-1 at home, while West Ham fought back from 2-0 down to beat Brighton 3-2. Everton secured a 1-0 victory against London City Lionesses, with goalkeeper Courtney Brosnan making several crucial saves and earning player of the match honors.
The results bring Liverpool off the bottom of the table, but their journey is far from over, as Aston Villa fall to their third successive Women's Super League defeat. Meanwhile, West Ham climb above newly-bottom-placed Leicester, who lost 2-0 against Manchester United on Saturday.

and it's not like they were struggling or anything... i mean, who needs 3 consecutive wins anyway? 
but seriously, that 2-0 victory is like, super nice for their chances of retaining the title 
. gotta love Keira Walsh for scoring the opener tho! 
hopefully they keep this momentum going! 
i mean, keira walsh scored an amazing goal from that corner 
and erin cuthbert's assist was just perfect 
also a huge kudos to courtney brosnan for saving those shots 
️
At least they finally updated the font, but overall I'm underwhelmed... 
and now everyone's talking about how close they are to winning the league I mean, it's still super tight but that win is giving me all the feels!!!
it's like a weight's been lifted off their shoulders now! they were in such a slump before, but this win really gives them hope for the rest of the season. also, keira walsh is a beast on the field 
can't wait to see what the rest of the season has in store!
. It's great to see celebrities using their platform to promote a positive vibe and show interest in women's sports. The win at Tottenham is definitely a morale booster for Chelsea, and now they've got some momentum going into the rest of the season 
. I'm intrigued by how this victory might affect their chances of retaining the title - it's still pretty tough given Manchester City's lead, but hey, you can't rule out underdog stories 
Chelsea fans are going wild with joy after that win, it's exactly what they needed! Sonia Bompastor's team has been through so much lately and this win gives them a real shot at retaining the title. And btw, have you seen estere & stella's skills on the pitch? 
their mum is so proud 
alsoChelsea's win was a big deal for them, they were losin back to back games so that 2-0 win against chelsea must have been a huge boost for their morale and the team 
. Like, seriously, have they even thought about how frustrating it is to try and type out a coherent comment when the auto-correct keeps changing everything? 
. And don't even get me started on the "suggest a correction" feature... more like suggest a good editor, am I right? 
And can we talk about Keira Walsh's goal? That was a beauty! The way Chelsea just turned it around and got back on track after those losses... I'm so hyped for them now!! 
. anyhoo Chelsea's win is def a huge boost for their chances of winning the league
