KN it down Russo tried to pounce on it brght had to get it back to goal butovich had mistake there it was spilled and then for musich recovered ball still in a dangerous spot SP Co tried to slip it over musich made one mistake she bailed herself out yeah she did massive save comes out big spreads makes the save against Ford she knew she had to do that JP the ahead recovery thought about it now we'll switch it Lawrence the cross off the fingertips it comes back written cantero in Beaver Jones blocked Bieber Jones what a sweet move that was back to bronze Lucy bronze tagged it but it's blocked long ball from Williamson it's always on when she has the ball Russo with a run made by Ford played it across but it's not close all is switched up into the middle mccab lost it the pickup there from distance right at goal and it was bobbled for a split second by sburg girl Ron played it in near post picked up hanano it's loose in front and the game's first goal Baltimore Chelsea leads well that's a one way to start your scoring career with Chelsea first touch of the game here is and it's great work here the back heel from Charles sets up right in into the channel and this is what hanano has done all game just outworked everybody else around her picks the ball off of an Arsenal Defender right here it's Kim little plays it into a dangerous area and then off of the half volley Sandy Baltimore Just Hits it so cleanly leans away through the laces into the back of the net one to nothing Chelsea a really good hardworking play from them Baltimore French internal [Applause] hanano there's those technical skills we've talked about thought that ball was entirely out now finally for both of these teams actually off the subs bench bit of a hold there Zinburger is able to clear that one away that hold went undetected right in front of mcabe high up going inside played across Russo went for it it's loose cleaned up not quite take it away shot taken that was blocked fine rer was there and now it's cleared [Applause] away played with some fire there as Chelsea but I could go back and watch that pass look from Cente to maave all day long with the the texture inside of the or outside the Colombian International in a space here picked up Russo save she had a better option I think manam was open and this is unfortunate because Russo is so good in these situations determining what the right option is here she opts to go for a shot but as this play gets broken up it's ktie Reid who did a really good job in the first game against Washington Spirit has stepped in and is the Difference Maker on this play I think it the right choice there for Russo is to actually chop it back and to find all this space that monum oh what a touch yeah turned over though Russo into the box took the shot that's over the [Applause] bar it's a really good pressure from Marshall look at all the numbers around the ball and then Co can go with one touch into Russo I love that Russo just gets she recognizes when she gets that little half a yard well in America we call it yards that little bit of space there away from the defender where she can get her shot off this one going up and over the net but once the defender drops back there it's it's it's left for McCabe an inviting ball in the middle headed down straight down the middle shot taken was blocked it was off Cal dente's shot should be a corner for Arsenal it felt like she was going to teed up there the patience from Cente to see where everybody runs to she's looking for the driven to the middle punched up the middle headed by Liam and it's out gold he will get to it Potter that is going to do it Chelsea gets the win a narrow Victory it was one nothing
