A series of controversies and surprises erupted across the Women's Super League (WSL) as several top teams experienced highs and lows in their respective matches. One of the most contentious issues involved Manchester United goalkeeper Tullis-Joyce, whose apparent injury time-wasting sparked heated debate among fans and pundits alike.
According to match reports, Dominique Janssen seemed to admit that Phallon Tullis-Joyce had feigned an injury to facilitate a tactical team talk with her teammates. However, the Manchester United manager Marc Skinner later disputed this claim, stating that Tullis-Joyce genuinely needed medical attention. Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur's Ashleigh Neville enjoyed a triumphant return to her former club, scoring the only goal in their 1-0 victory over Leicester.
Another standout match saw Aston Villa overcome Brighton with remarkable resilience after conceding an early goal. The visitors showed remarkable composure and intensity to level the score before scoring twice to seal a 2-1 win.
In contrast, West Ham's woes continued as they suffered a crushing 5-0 defeat at Chelsea, courtesy of Rita Guarino's embarrassing earring-related delay that prevented her from making her debut.
The league table sees Manchester City Women and Tottenham Hotspur Women still vying for top spot with 33 points each, followed closely by Arsenal Women on 23. Meanwhile, Leicester Women remain at the bottom after a dismal run of results.

I mean, Phallon Tullis-Joyce and Dominique Janssen having a chat that long? Sounds like something my mates and I would do on a Sunday afternoon after the match, not in the middle of an actual game. And don't even get me started on Rita Guarino's earring... poor girl, it's like she's got more drama than a Kardashian wedding 
️
Tullis-Joyce's injury fake out had me LOLing like for real tho! but ugh, Phallon's team talk tactics are SO sus 
cant believe Marc Skinner didnt see it comin. Ashleigh Neville's goal was fire btw 
and that aston villa comeback was SICK 
wth West Hams Rita Guarino tho... who drops an earring in a big match?? 5-0 is harsh 
anyway, manchester city & Tottenham are killin the game 
I'm literally torn about Phallon Tullis-Joyce... like, if she did indeed waste time, that's super unsportsmanlike 
but at the same time, injuries can be legit and some players might not want to get subbed out of a game in the middle. And then again, Marc Skinner saying he genuinely needed medical attention makes me question whether it was even an injury or just a ploy... I mean, what if she actually did get hurt? 
But on the other hand, Rita Guarino's earring delay was SO embarrassing 
and I don't think it reflects well on them at all... Ugh, WSL drama 
? Tullis-Joyce is either super brave or ridiculously reckless, idk 
! Either way, it's got everyone talking about tactics and sportsmanship 
. I mean, who expects to be in the spotlight over a silly injury timeout? 
!
. But for real though, Rita Guarino's earring mishap at West Ham is just LOL 
. Can't wait to see how the rest of the season unfolds 
.
and honestly, leicester womens team cant catch a break right now 
but for real, I'm loving the comebacks like Ashleigh Neville's win over Leicester - she's a total rockstar 
. anyway, it's great to see Manchester City Women and Tottenham Hotspur Women still battling for the top spot 
5-0 for West Ham is a joke, Rita Guarino needs to work on her focus... or should I say, her earring game 
. Those injuries can be tricky to call out, though - one minute Tullis-Joyce is down, the next she's getting a team talk 
!
And what's up with Rita Guarino's earring getting in the way of her debut? 
Meanwhile, Ashleigh Neville's return to Tottenham Hotspur was awesome! She's one of my favorite players and her goal was epic 
Tottenham Hotspur Women are rocking this season! And poor Rita Guarino, 5-0 is just brutal 
. Anyway, it's all part of the game, and those teams are gonna give it their all
