James scores three as Chelsea beat Man Utd

Chelsea secured a commanding win over Manchester United, allowing them to regain their lead by 3 points in the Women's Super League. Lauren James was the star player of the match, netting a hat-trick.

After only five minutes, James got the Blues closer to winning when she dodged her opponent to open up a spot and then shot the ball beyond Mary Earps into the back of the net.

Chelsea had a firm grip over United, who faced difficulties in starting their gameplay. James swiftly increased Chelsea's lead by skillfully managing a lengthy pass from Nathalie Bjorn. He then hammered the ball into the net without any hesitation.

Manchester United did not come close to scoring against Chelsea because Chelsea had the ball for most of the game. However, Manchester United got a lucky break when Hayley Ladd scored just before halftime.

Ladd's objective brought new energy to the away team and they came out of halftime with a positive momentum. Ella Toone and Lucia Garcia had opportunities to tie the game, but were not able to convert.

James made United pay for their inability to recover and scored her third goal in the 85th minute, thanks to a perfectly placed assist from Sjoeke Nusken that found her behind United's defensive line.

The loss that Red Devils faced has resulted in them trailing behind Chelsea by a margin of 10 points in the league standings. On the other hand, Chelsea has successfully secured a lead of three points ahead of the team that currently occupies the second position, Arsenal.

James Leads Chelsea To Crucial Win

The team managed by Emma Hayes is currently competing for their fifth consecutive Women's Super League championship and they seem to be making good progress towards achieving their goals.

Once more, James, who is currently at the top of the division's scoring list with 10 goals from 11 games, played a vital role in leading her team to victory. She demonstrated her intelligence by making calculated runs behind the United defence, which created openings for her team-mates, as she cleverly drew defenders away.

The famous Chelsea football team unfortunately lost their top scorer, Sam Kerr, for the remainder of the season due to a major knee injury to her anterior cruciate ligament. However, Chelsea still showed their impressive attacking abilities even without her on the field.

Although James scored all three goals, Chelsea had other methods of attacking. Johanna Rytting Kaneryd was a constant threat to the United defenders by making sharp runs from the right and beating them.

Their defensive performance was noteworthy, especially as United gained momentum during the game. Bjorn, who had recently transferred from Everton, smoothly integrated into the team and displayed confidence as a center-back during her debut in the league. Buchanan also contributed to the strong defensive effort.

United Falls Back, Far Behind

No squad has emerged victorious in the Women's Super League with more than two losses throughout the campaign and United have encountered a potentially fatal third.

United's chance of catching up with Chelsea, who are currently leading the table with a 10-point lead, seems very unlikely as they only have 11 games left in the season.

Although they eventually found their rhythm on Sunday afternoon, the amount of time it took them to get there ultimately caused their failure.

During the initial moments, Chelsea dominated the game with continuous pressure, and their opponents were motionless in defence. Additionally, they were unable to cope with the opposition's attacks from both sides of the field.

Despite having an advantage, Chelsea demonstrated their strategic abilities and modified their defensive tactics to make United ineffective, with their attacking efforts proving to be fruitless.

Toone lost possession of the ball when she was facing Hampton alone, and Garcia missed a chance to score a goal by heading the ball too far out to the side of the net.

This season has been quite challenging for United as they were eliminated from the Champions League during the second round of qualifications. Unfortunately, it seems like winning the league may not be a possibility for them now.
