Mead: Chelsea loss will fuel Arsenal in final

Arsenal midfielder Frida Maanum has not reported for international duty with Norway after collapsing in the 95th minute of her teams’ 1-0 win over Chelsea in the Continental Tyres League Cup final on Sunday.

Chelsea are attempting to bolster their midfield with the double signing of Brighton’s Moises Caicedo and Tyler Adams from Leeds United, sources have told ESPN.

Carlo Ancelotti blamed “defensive fragility” for Real Madrid’s 3-1 derby defeat to Atletico Madrid in LaLiga on Sunday but refused to criticise individual players, saying the loss was “my fault.”
