Lauren James scored twice as Chelsea beat Leicester City 5-2 on Sunday to stay top of the FA Women's Super League going into the final international break of 2023, while Arsenal stay second after a 3-0 win over West Ham United.
In the late game Khadija Shaw was in exceptional form for Manchester City, securing a hat-trick as her side cruised to a 7-0 home win over Tottenham Hotspur.
James struck in the second minute to give Chelsea the lead, and an own goal by Courtney Nevin three minutes later had them 2-0 up, and though Leicester pegged them back to 2-1 and 3-2, a second goal from James and an Agnes Beever-Jones strike secured the three points for the home side.
20 home @BarclaysWSL wins in a row.
