ToggleWeek 19 of the WSL: We're nearing the end
After Arsenal beat Leicester City convincingly in a midweek game, they extended their streak of home matches with at least four goals. This weekend it’s time for Round 19 of the WSL.
Arsenal and Chelsea won’t be in action, as both sides are playing their Champions League semi-final matches.
Meanwhile, Manchester City will be looking to bounce back after losing yet another player to an ACL injury—this time Mary Fowler. The Citizens now have almost an entire starting eleven out injured. Everton, on the other hand, have finally started to get some things going their way this season, thanks to a few smart signings.
