Former Republic of Ireland defender Niamh Fahey made her final appearance for Liverpool as the Reds lost 1-0 at Chelsea in the final day of action in the Women's Super League.

The 37-year-old, who announced her retirement from professional football last week, entered the fray in the 83rd minute.

The result means Chelsea completed an unbeaten season in the WSL, while Arsenal held on for a 4-3 victory over Manchester United to finish second in the standings.

Chelsea, who sealed their sixth consecutive WSL title last month, were unable to break down Liverpool's defence at Stamford Bridge until the 91st minute when Ashley Lawrence played in Aggie Beever-Jones and the England international produced an excellent right-foot shot from a tight angle.

They also become the first team to go unbeaten in a 22-match WSL campaign, though Arsenal (2012), Manchester City (2016) and Chelsea (2017-18) have achieved the feat in previous seasons with fewer games.

At the Emirates Stadium, Chloe Kelly scored in the second minute to give Arsenal an early lead but United's Ella Toone levelled in the 13th minute, before strikes from Mariona Caldentey, Frida Maanum and Kim Little put the hosts in the driving seat.

Arsenal, who face Barcelona in the Women's Champions League final this month, ended the season with 48 points, four ahead of third-placed United.
