Chelsea marked Emma Hayes' return to the dugout in emphatic style on Saturday as they eased to a comfortable 3-0 WSL win over Tottenham in front of over 38,000 fans at Stamford Bridge.

Hayes had been absent from the touchline for six weeks after undergoing an emergency hysterectomy. Her side celebrated her comeback by climbing to the top of the WSL table thanks to a blistering first half performance, with goals from Sam Kerr, Erin Cuthbert and Guro Reiten seeing the Blues victory Tottenham have a history of frustrating the big four in the WSL, but have tended to struggle when playing in landmark fixtures at main stadiums in recent months. They fell behind after just 12 minutes, Kerr shrugging off Shelina Zadorsky's slide tackle and firing low past a sea of Tottenham bodies and into the bottom corner. Ashleigh Neville called Ann-Katrin Berger into action for the first time after dispossessing Eve Perisset, but her curling effort from range was comfortably held - and that was about as good as it got for Spurs in the first half.

 

Cuthbert added a spectacular second for Chelsea after 26 minutes. Lauren James' corner drifted all the way through to the Scotland international on the edge of the Spurs box, and she controlled the ball with her chest before rifling a swerving half volley into the top corner. James was again involved as the Blues made it three before the first half was out. The forward turned Asmita Ale and Neville inside out, before appearing to be clipped by the latter as she entered the penalty area. Reiten emphatically dispatched the subsequent spot kick. Chelsea continued to dominate in the second half but the intensity dropped a little with the result seemingly a formality. Jess Naz created an opening for Spurs after skipping past Bright and fizzing in a cross from the right, while James fired narrowly wide for the Blues from range. The WSL title race is well and truly on.
