Mead and Caldentey Take Huge London Derby Win - Chelsea v Arsenal Highlights - Barclays WSL 25-26

He's little delivery, looking for Ford to live by the Australian back to Katie McCabe. It's one Russo now on the follow up and see bronze is there, but a good early chance for Arsenal. Every defender's nightmare and you've got someone with that ability and that pace running at you and swinging from Baltimore met by black Stenius headed back goal wasn't off the line. It's the ball goal words and it's taken off the head of Russo back in by me. Black Stenius is there and she can't die. The head of goal words, Stenius just can't quite get up and get enough on it, but that is a decent enough chance. But I think just a little bit out of black Stenius has reached that cross from Beth Mead. Black Stenius had time to take a touch and turn into the penalty area there rather than play it out. Yeah, that's what you want to see from Arsenal shot from distance, making Hannah Hampton make a save. Okay, nothing's come of it. You never know. And another day that bounces off and somebody's there to pick up the pieces. Takes the ball really well. You think it's just going to open up, but she spots Beth Mead, takes a good touch and this time sets herself up for a shot and finishes it brilliantly into the far corner. Here is James from the get go, trying to feed Thompson into the box and the shot well saved by Borba. It's Lauren James in a nutshell, isn't it? Under pressure, manages to get the ball. Great little turn from Kaptein. Lovely weighted pass to Thompson. Just can't get that shot on target. Russo. Here's the goal scorer Beth Mead. Out to Fox. Breaks for Caldente. Takes the touch and finds the bottom corner and Arsenal have a second. Mariona Caldente and it's the Arsenal fans who are cheering. Chelsea nil, Arsenal two. Wow, that is not what we were expecting. Chelsea don't concede many goals and they don't lose to Arsenal at Stamford Bridge. But right now, Arsenal playing with bags of confidence. Beth Mead looks a different player, makes a really good choice there. Caldente in tons of space and you think again, it's been one of those where she's taken too many touches, but who am I to quibble when she finishes it like that? The composure she has. Nice little touch. Sensitive, not well defended at all by Naomi Girma there. Sells herself far too easily, but a fantastic little touch from Caldente and then just uses the rest of the Chelsea team to bend it into that corner. Hannah Hampton can't even see the ball until it's in the back of her net for a bit more of a presence in that midfield for Chelsea. Falling behind for Black Stenius gets away brilliantly. Had the finish, but the flag was up and that's the threat that she poses and that's the problem now for Chelsea as they push to get back into this game. They will leave spaces at the back. Yeah, that is close as well. That's what Black Stenius will do. It's a really clever finish outside of her foot. Here comes Emily Fox, goes for goal herself and it's a strong save from Hannah Hampton. Russo wins it back off Naomi Germer into Black Stenius. Bronze is there. Black Stenius goes for goal, saved by Hampton and she collects the follow-up in by James. Headed by Nuskin, it was a free header. She couldn't keep it down. At the moment in front of goal, not enjoying a very prolific spell. Here come Arsenal. Russo, Black Stenius, back to Victoria Polova and it's blocked by Bronze. Yeah, they're looking good on that counter-attack, aren't they, Arsenal? Russo's been really key to that. I think she's had a fantastic game in that number 10 role. And now here come Arsenal on the counter. Brilliant running from Ford, slides it through to Black Stenius, saved by the mid-drift of Hannah Hampton. No flag was raised either. Yeah, looked a close one there. I thought she might have drifted, but really good play from Caitlin Ford, drove her team forward. Exactly what you want at this stage in the game. Hampton just about keeping some sliver of hope alive for her team. Baltimore, good delivery, caught by Borba. And that's it then. Arsenal have beaten Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea's title ambitions in tatters. Arsenal move closer to the reigning champions and make up some ground on the league leaders Manchester City. Arsenal won the game in a six-minute period in the second half. Beth Mead scoring first and then Mariona Caldente with a brilliant curling finish. And after Arsenal took the lead, Chelsea didn't look like they were able to find a way back in. A really big win for Arsenal. Full-time score here, Chelsea nil, Arsenal two. It was a game with chances for both teams. But then when the second one goes in at that moment in the game, that means something, of course. It showed, I guess. We were really happy. But then there were still quite some minutes to play that we had to manage. Chelsea were still creating and getting crosses in, so we had to manage that. They did get some chances, but we survived. But I think the team fully deserved this win. And I don't think we only win the game today. It's since the moment they've come back in and after the adversity that we had to go through and with pressure on ourselves. Since the second of Jan, this is the outcome and we always believed it. And it's so well deserved for the players. Arsenal was a great team today. I think the turning point in the game is when they scored the first goal. These games, they have fine margins. And just for the team that takes the lead, sometimes it helps a lot mentally. So I think when we conceded the goal, I had to react and maybe help the team to do something different on the pitch. I think probably the last 20 minutes, we were trying with a lot of energy. We couldn't score. Maybe being able to come back at 2-1 would have been good with the energy of the fans. But it didn't work. We couldn't score. And I think if you analyse the performance, there is room for improvement for sure for us.
