Chelsea smashed nine goals past Leicester on Sunday to go top of the Women’s Super League.
Guro Reiten, Sam Kerr and Bethany England all hit braces in the 9-0 romp at the King Power Stadium.
The Blues leapfrogged Arsenal atop the WSL as a result of the win, with the Gunners not in action after their north London derby against Tottenham was postponed due to a Spurs Covid outbreak.
Chelsea winger Reiten opened the scoring with a pinpoint free-kick in the third minute and added another in first-half stoppage time.
In between, England scored twice with Kerr and Aniek Nouwen also getting on the scoresheet.

Kerr got her second two minutes into the second-half and Lauren James and Jessie Fleming scored late goals as the Blues took over top spot on 41 points, one ahead of the Gunners with both teams having five games left to play.
With the bottom side in the 12-team league automatically relegated, Leicester remain in 11th spot on 12 points, eight ahead of Birmingham, who have a game in hand.
Elsewhere, Alessio Russo scored twice as third-placed Manchester United cruised to a 3-1 win over Everton in front of a crowd of 20,241 at Old Trafford, while West Ham slumped to a 2-0 defeat at home to Brighton.
Manchester City's home game against Birmingham was called off due to a number of positive Covid tests in the visitors' squad.
