    We talk about sport not being fair and if you're watching here today, you'd say Chelsea winning today isn't fair.

    But after getting knocked out of the Champions League, coming here and beating Man Utd 1-0 is not an easy thing to do, and this is why they're champions.

    Chelsea DO NOT deserve this! United have been all over them and there should have been a penalty in the first half. Should be at least 3-0 down

    Paul

  3. Man Utd 0-1 Chelsea

    Catarina Macario nearly wraps it all up with a snap shot using the outside of her boot, which Phallon Tullis-Joyce beats away at her near post.

    Chelsea look throroughly relaxed now.

    Curse of the commentator? As a Chelsea fan I will happily take that all day!

  5. Man Utd 0-1 Chelsea

    10 minutes remain, and Chelsea are bound for a sixth straight league title.

    They would also become the first ever WSL side to go 20 matches unbeaten in the same campaign, as we stand.

  6. 'That's why Chelsea are champions'

    This is why they're champions and this is why they've won it five years in a row, because they produce moments.

    They've been far from their best today but you give them one opportunity and they take it, and it's a great header by Lucy Bronze. She gets up so high.

  7. SUBSTITUTIONS

    Man Utd 0-1 Chelsea

    A triple change for Chelsea after that goal - Catarina Macario, Guro Reiten and Maika Hamano are all sent on.

    Sandy Baltimore, Aggie Beever-Jones and Johanna Rytting Kaneryd - who herself came on as a sub in the first half - make way.

    "If you're the champions, stand up," sing the Chelsea fans.

    Manchester United supporters reply with "sit down, shut up".

    Hmm, only one has the last laugh...

    GOAL - Man Utd 0-1 Chelsea

    Lucy Bronze (74 mins)

    And that may well be that in the WSL title race.

    Inswinging corner by the left-footed Sandy Baltimore, Phallon Tullis-Joyce but gets nowhere near with her punch, and Lucy Bronze is able to flick her header inside the far post.

    A mixture of joy and relief among the Chelsea players, fans and coaches.

    Bronze and Walsh may have won lots of trophies in Barcelona but the lack of intense competition in the Spanish domestic league has left them short back in the WSL.

  12. Man Utd 0-0 Chelsea

    18 minutes plus change to go, will we get the goal this game deserves?

    A reminder that if things stay as they are, Chelsea are champions again.

  13. SUBSTITUTION

    Man Utd 0-0 Chelsea

    Gabby George is unable to continue, Anna Sandberg comes on at full back.

  14. Man Utd 0-0 Chelsea

    Johanna Rytting Kaneryd beats Gabby George to the byline, but her cross is too close to Phallon Tullis-Joyce.

    George has stayed down, the United defender will be attended by the physios.

  15. 'What an effort from Terland'

    Man Utd 0-0 Chelsea

    Natasha Dowie
    Former England striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    What an effort that was from Elisabeth Terland.

    She's the prolific goalscorer who can take half a yard and shoot.

    Sonia Bompastor has just turned around and kicked a water bottle towards the hoardings in frustration. She is fuming. Chelsea's level has really dropped this half.

  17. Man Utd 0-0 Chelsea

    Elisabeth Terland's first sight of goal sees her strike over from 15 yards.

    The Chelsea defence gave her too much space there.

  18. Man Utd 0-0 Chelsea

    Emma Sanders

    "Settle down, settle down," is the shout from Naomi Girma as Sonia Bompastor applauds and comforts a disappointed Niamh Charles after a wasteful clearance.

    Chelsea need to hang on for around 20 minutes to win the title. United want a win to secure their spot in next season's Champions League.

    A lot at stake. It's nervy.

  19. Man Utd 0-0 Chelsea

    A cross from Celin Bizet is deflected, and spirals into the arms of Hannah Hampton.

    Chelsea defender Millie Bright nearly tripped over Hampton as she was covering, and had to take evasive action not to knock the ball past her own keeper.

  20. SUBSTITUTIONS

    Man Utd 0-0 Chelsea

    And now the changes are made for the home side.

    Melvine Malard and Grace Clinton make way for Terland and Toone.
