Bompastor's side started well in the first half and went in at the break 1-0 in front thanks to a strike from Johanna Rytting Kaneryd. Yet the home team rallied after the interval, and we were pegged back late in the second half.

And while there were some positives to take from this encounter, the overriding feeling was one of disappointment that we weren't able to secure the three points.

'We’re frustrated about the result for sure,' said Bompastor afterwards. 'We took a point today, and in the title race, every game is important. So not a good result. I think we had a good first half in terms of the way we played. We created some opportunities, and we scored one goal.

'When we started the second half, we created two big chances to score. We couldn't score that second goal, and we suffered a bit at the end of the game.

'We knew in this block that this match had the quickest turnaround in terms of recovery between the games. That’s why we decided to rotate the squad.

'We are still confident because, from what I can see, from the players and the quality we have, we can still beat every team in this league. We know it will be tough, but we are playing Manchester United in the last game of the season, and we'll see what happens.'

The Chelsea head coach made four changes to the side which beat Brighton 2-1 at Kingsmeadow on Wednesday evening, meaning the average age of our starting line-up was 23 years and 198 days, the youngest in the entire Women's Super League this season.

'As you could see, we started the game with a really young starting XI,' she continued. 'I'm really proud of the players who started the game, the way they delivered and performed.

'I was the head of the academy for eight years at my previous club, and I really enjoy working with young players, trying to develop them individually. I think probably today, you could see our preparation for the game with them was good, because they played well, and it’s not always easy for them to come in and perform straight away.

'In that sense, I enjoyed it, and I liked the performance they were able to have on the pitch. It's great experience for them as well, being able to play in these tough games. It will build them for the future. As the Chelsea manager, I think it's good when you have the opportunity to give the chance for a young player to start games.'
