🚨 Chelsea drop points in WSL as Leicester hold them to draw | OneFootball

Scorers: Goodwin 21'; Kaptein 77'

Chelsea dropped points for the first time this season as Leicester City held them to a well-deserved point in the Women's Super League at the King Power Stadium.

Despite their excellent recent form, Chelsea began the game slowly and Leicester took full advantage. Midway through the first half, some slick passing found Missy Goodwin free on the right side of the penalty area, who in turn found the back of the net and handed Leicester a shock advantage.

Bompastor's side looked short on ideas in a bitty first half, and struggled to test Janina Leitzig in the Leicester City goal as the Foxes looked more than a match for the league leaders.

It was a similar story after the interval too, despite Bompastor introducing Niamh Charles and Catarina Macário for the second half. The Blues dominated the ball, but could not find a way past Leicester centre-backs Sophie Howard and Sari Kees, both of whom turned in immense performances for the midlands side.

But 13 minutes from time, the Champions finally found a way through the stubborn defence as Wieke Kaptein drove through the middle of the pitch before providing a pinpoint finish to level a game that seemed to be getting away from her side.

The Blues pushed for a winner as Leicester desperately tried to hold on for a well-deserved point, with Mayra Ramirez testing Leitzig with a stinging effort.

And though they ended the game with a massive 22 shots, Bompastor's side could not find a second goal as Sjoeke Nusken blazed one final glorious chance over the bar, meaning that they dropped points for the first time this season.
