BRIGHTON, England – Manchester City secured the Women’s Super League title on Wednesday for the first time in ten years after Arsenal, their last remaining challengers, were held to a 1-1 draw against Brighton & Hove Albion.
City lead the standings with 52 points from 21 of their 22 matches. Arsenal needed to win all four of their remaining games to have any chance of overtaking City, but Brighton’s draw ensured the title would go to Manchester instead of North London.
Arsenal, who reached the Champions League semi-finals before being eliminated by OL Lyonnes last weekend, fell behind against Brighton when Fuka Tsunoda scored just before halftime. Norwegian midfielder Frida Maanum equalized in the 60th minute, but Arsenal could not find a winner despite a late push.
