Tottenham 0-1 Chelsea: Emma Hayes' side top WSL ahead of final-day showdown

Chelsea will head into the final day of the season on top of the Women's Super League after Maika Hamano secured a nervy 1-0 win at Tottenham.

A fifth successive title remains in Emma Hayes' side's hands - they now sit above Manchester City on goal difference, with the Blues two goals better off.

Hamano's first-half strike, converted at the back post after strong work by Guro Reiten, was enough to secure a priceless three points.

Chelsea were far from their best, inviting pressure from Spurs in the second half and wasting the few chances they created after the break - but their hosts were unable to punish them.

The champions now head to Manchester United on Saturday knowing they will win yet another WSL title if they claim victory at Old Trafford - and Manchester City do not overcome the goal-difference deficit when they visit Aston Villa.

What's next?

Tottenham end the season with another London derby when they host West Ham on Saturday; kick-off 3pm.

Chelsea travel to Old Trafford to face Manchester United on the final day with the WSL title on the line; kick-off 3pm.
