🎥 Chelsea hit back in WSL after early Villa scare | OneFootball

Chelsea Women hoped to bounce back in the WSL after their mid-week Champions League defeat against Arsenal. 

However, the Blues made a nightmare start in their home clash against Aston Villa on Sunday and conceded after just two minutes.

Defender Ellie Carpenter gifted the visitors an opening after her mis-placed pass in midfield. 

Villa punished the mistake with a free-flowing attack, and Chasity Grant applied a flicked finish at the near post.

The Villans held their lead for 18 minutes before Sam Kerr and Lauren James' brace put Chelsea in front.
