This year’s WSL season will live long in the memory as Chelsea claimed a third successive title on a dramatic final day of action.
The Women’s Super League season ended in dramatic fashion. With the title still to be decided with 45 minutes to play, it went right down to the wire. Here we nominate some standout performers this the season.
Ann-Katrin Berger: The German failed to match her spectacular 2020-21 campaign but still had a solid season. Kept nine clean sheets, finishing third behind Arsenal’s Manuela Zinsberger and Manchester United’s Mary Earps in the race for the golden glove. 7
Jessie Fleming and Stephen Eustáquio celebrated title triumphs, while Iké Ugbo did what he could to help keep his team in Ligue 1.
“I’m not known for my worldie goals but the thing that I’m known for is getting it done when it matters”, the showboating but incredibly humble Sam Kerr said after her two goals in Chelsea’s 4-2 victory over Manchester United helped clinch the WSL title. “The most important thing for me is scoring goals and making sure the team is at the top of the table when the season ends,” she added. As she spoke her manager Emma Hayes, with the biggest of smiles, nodded. Because this is the crux of Chelsea’s success. Hayes has recruited supreme talents, Kerr being one of them, but she also focuses on team players, players with the right attitude, players, like Kerr, who see themselves winning even when things are not going their way. From the opening day 3-2 defeat to Arsenal, the Chelsea players never doubted they would lift silverware come May. SW
