Chelsea completed a 1–0 home victory over Arsenal in the Women’s Super League on 27 September, a match played at Stamford Bridge within this desk’s closed Asia/Kolkata reporting window. Alyssa Thompson scored Chelsea’s goal. The official Arsenal match report, Chelsea’s official post-match reaction, Reuters’ completed-match report and Sky Sports’ final page all record the final score, scorer and venue.
The goal followed a Chelsea move late in the first half. Arsenal’s account says goalkeeper Anneke Borbe saved Keira Walsh’s low effort before Thompson followed up to make it 1–0. Reuters and Sky independently describe the same rebound finish. Sky also marks the match full time at 1–0, so there was no late equaliser or pending result after the final whistle.
Arsenal had created pressure before Chelsea went ahead. The visitors’ official report says Kim Little hit the post, while Sky reported a strong Arsenal start that included two efforts against the woodwork. Arsenal’s report also documents the visitors’ attempts to find a response after the interval, including a Stina Blackstenius effort that went off target with an offside flag raised. Chelsea preserved the lead to complete the win.
The match was a completed outcome, not a live fixture or a preliminary score. Chelsea’s and Arsenal’s official accounts, together with Reuters and Sky, agree on the 1–0 result. The sources used for this update do not indicate a correction, abandonment, postponement, rescheduling or outstanding disciplinary decision. It is therefore reported as final for this closed window.
