Report: West Ham United 2-1 Arsenal Women

We saw our winning start to 2024 come to an end at the hands of West Ham United in the Women's Super League.

Despite taking a first-half lead through Alessia Russo, the Hammers pulled off their first-ever WSL victory over us with two quick goals from French duo, Viviane Asseyi and Hawa Cissoko.

What happened

Sunday afternoon marked Leah Williamson's first start since April 2023, as the England captain continues to work up to full fitness post-ACL injury. With Katie McCabe out through suspension, Steph Catley started on the left as the only other change from the team who lined up against Liverpool last weekend.
