WSL 2 set up for a thrilling final day

WSL 2 has come down to the wire with three teams in with a shout of lifting the title on Saturday.

Charlton Athletic, Birmingham City, and Crystal Palace are all vying for the title as well as a spot in the top two that guarantees promotion to next year's expanded WSL with the third team facing a promotion/relegation play-off.

Last weekend gave us incredible drama with two of the top three failing to win setting us up for a grand finale.

The Addicks are currently in pole position despite scoring what looked like a stoppage-time winner against Southampton. Emma Bissell came on from the bench and immediately took the spot-kick that made it 2-1 in the 92nd minute.

However, there was a final twist when Atlanta Primus equalised in the 94th minute to make it 2-2 on the day.

While Charlton may be ruing dropping two points, Birmingham City collapsed inside the first 15 minutes at home to Ipswich Town.

Kit Graham made it 1-0 in the sixth minute and then 3-0 in the 14th minute with Princess Ademiluyi scoring the third that helped Charlton, the club she spent time on loan with last season.

The only team that didn't stumble was the one who looked most likely to fall off the top two. Crystal Palace needed to win and they did with and scoring in a 2-1 win away to to keep them in third place but most significantly, closer to the top two.
