The Blues' Blitz: What Chelsea's Thrashing of Man Utd Says About Women's Football Chelsea's 5 0 thrashing of Manchester United at Leigh Sports Village was a resounding victory that marked the Blues' first win of the season.
For United boss Eva Olid, it was a chastening debut at home. On paper, both teams had reason to be optimistic ahead of the match. However, Chelsea came out with a clear game plan and executed it flawlessly.
Their goals came from all over the park: Sjoeke Nusken's opener, Keira Walsh's well struck drive, Lauren James' timely strike, Ellie Carpenter's clinical finish, and Lucy Bronze's late flourish.
