Melvine Malard's late header secured a draw for Manchester United against Arsenal, preserving their unbeaten record in the Women’s Super League. The match, held at home, saw United equalize just eight minutes before the final whistle, denying Arsenal a third consecutive victory under interim head coach Renée Slegers. Despite Arsenal creating more opportunities throughout the game, it was United who found the back of the net when Malard scored, ensuring that the points were shared on a day when the visitors had looked poised for success.

The resignation of Jonas Eidevall as head coach of Arsenal marks a disappointing end to a tenure that began with great promise. His time at the club was framed by two encounters with Chelsea—his inaugural match resulted in an exhilarating 3-2 victory, while his final outing concluded with a lackluster 2-1 defeat, highlighting persistent issues that plagued the team. Eidevall's departure, announced recently, was not entirely surprising given the circumstances, but it did come as a shock. With only one win from three matches in the Women’s Super League and a heavy 5-2 loss to Bayern Munich in the Champions League preceding the Chelsea match, it became increasingly clear that his position was precarious. Regardless of the outcome against Chelsea, doubts about Eidevall's future loomed large. The prospect of an international break just two games away and a winter break on the horizon made it seem unlikely that Arsenal would act so swiftly. Ultimately, the combination of disappointing results and a growing sense of discontent among fans contributed to the decision for Eidevall to step down. It’s a somber conclusion to a journey that once held so much potential.
