Rebecca Knaak's Last-Minute Glory Puts Man City on Brink of Champions
Manchester City's Rebecca Knaak scored a stoppage-time winner against Liverpool, securing a 1-0 victory and almost clinching the Women's Super League title. City leads with 52 points, clear of Chelsea, as they prepare for their decisive match against West Ham United. Other teams jostle for positions in a tense season finale.
Rebecca Knaak's dramatic late goal for Manchester City on Sunday put them just one win away from clinching the Women's Super League title for the first time since 2016. City's hard-fought 1-0 victory over Liverpool was enough to keep them ahead of Chelsea in the league standings.
With 52 points and only one match left to play against West Ham United, City holds a commanding position, unreachable by second-placed Chelsea, who face Leicester City soon. Arsenal trails in third after a resounding 7-0 victory against Leicester earlier this week.
In a day full of action, Tottenham Hotspur managed a narrow win over London City Lionesses, while Manchester United was held to a draw by Brighton, affecting their Champions League hopes. Meanwhile, Birmingham and Crystal Palace celebrated their promotion, awaiting the playoff outcome for the final top-flight spot.
