Tottenham Wins First North London Derby in WSL
Alessia Russo's Goal Proves Decisive
In a thrilling Women's Super League encounter at Emirates Stadium on Sunday, Tottenham Hotspur stunned arch-rivals Arsenal with a narrow 1-0 victory. The result marked Tottenham's first-ever triumph in the North London derby in the WSL.
The decisive moment came in the 32nd minute when Alessia Russo netted the game's only goal. Russo pounced on a loose ball in the Arsenal penalty area and fired a clinical shot into the bottom corner.
Arsenal dominated possession throughout the match but struggled to create clear-cut chances against a resolute Tottenham defense. Vivianne Miedema and Beth Mead both had opportunities to equalize, but their efforts were thwarted by goalkeeper Becky Spencer.
The victory elevates Tottenham to fifth place in the WSL table, while Arsenal remains in fourth place. The result also breathes new life into Tottenham's quest for a UEFA Women's Champions League spot next season.
