Manchester United’s Anna Sandberg scored a superb equaliser as her side came from a goal down to draw 1-1 at home with Chelsea in the Women’s Super League on Friday, handing the Londoners their first dropped league points of the season.
Champions Chelsea, winners of the last six WSL titles, took the lead in the ninth minute when Catarina Macario’s brilliant back-heel set Wieke Kaptein up for a simple finish.
Swedish defender Sandberg equalised 11 minutes later, latching onto a pass from Ella Toone and smashing a first-time shot from outside the area into the net. It was Sandberg’s first goal for Manchester United since joining from BK Häcken in August 2024.
Both sides created several chances to win the match, but neither managed to score again. The draw leaves Chelsea top of the table with 13 points from five games, while United sit second with 11.
