Mariona Caldentey's penalty and Rosa Kafaji's first Arsenal goal earned victory over West Ham in their first Women's Super League match sinceArsenal were underwhelming for long periods under interim boss Renee Slegers, but found the breakthrough when Amber Tysiak brought down Stina Blackstenius in the box with 20 minutes to play and Caledentey tucked away the spot-kick.
Arsenal came closest in the first half when Alessia Russo shot across the face of goal on 20 minutes before West Ham keeper Kinga Szemik saved with her legs from Emily Fox shortly after. And after making a good first impression with a 4-1 hammering of Valerenga midweek in the Champions League, here Slegers was eventually able to draw another win from her team despite a largely below-par showing.
Yet Arsenal still dominated possession while lacking a cutting edge, the side who have underperformed their xG more than any other WSL team in 2024-25 again flattering to deceive for long spells. Goal! West Ham United Women 0, Arsenal Women 2. Rosa Kafaji right footed shot from the centre of the box to the top left corner. Assisted by Stina Blackstenius.
