Going into the game at the Kingsmeadow Stadium on the back of last week’s 3-0 home loss to Reading, boss Scott Rogers had demanded a response from his young side against the league leaders.
The last time Liverpool Ladies locked horns with Chelsea saw the Londoners inflict a 7-0 win over the Reds, but this time around Rogers can be proud of his team’s efforts.
Rogers was without Bethany England who couldn’t play against her parent club Chelsea so Kate Longhurst returned to the side.
Chelsea made a lively start to the proceedings and the only goal of the contest came in the 14th minute when Norway Women’s captain Maren Mjelde pounced to beat Siobhan Chamberlain.
