A team from Manchester and a team from London will have been pleased with this result, but neither of them were here. Manchester City and Chelsea were the real winners, as Arsenal and Manchester United played out a goalless draw and lost further ground in the title race.
United played the final 25 minutes with 10 players after Jayde Riviere was sent off for a second bookable offence, a late challenge on Caitlin Foord, but a resolute United withstood Arsenal’s late pressure.
