Man City win WSL title as Arsenal held by Brighton
- On Wednesday, May 6, 2026, Manchester City secured the Women's Super League title for the second time in club history after Arsenal drew 1-1 with Brighton and Hove Albion, marking City's first league championship in 10 years.
- The championship crowns an excellent debut season for City manager Andree Jeglertz, who took charge in July 2025; the team's title campaign relied on a strong attack led by Khadija Shaw's 19 goals.
- Arsenal needed victory to remain in contention but were held to a 1-1 draw at Broadfield Stadium, where Fuka Tsunoda opened the scoring for Brighton in the 43rd minute before Frida Maanum equalized after 62 minutes.
- The result officially ends Chelsea's run of six consecutive league championships; City now sit 10 points clear at the top of the table with the Gunners holding three games remaining.
- Defensive stability paired with consistent scoring proved decisive as City conceded only 18 goals—the second-fewest in the WSL—while holding off defending champions Chelsea to claim the trophy.
