FULL MATCH: Manchester City v Arsenal | Barclays WSL 26/27
Twice behind at the Etihad Stadium, twice level, then in front for good. Manchester City's 4-2 win over Arsenal was a match people seem to have wanted whole. The full recording passed 225,000 views within nine hours of going up on Sunday, on a channel where a new video usually gathers fewer than 3,000 in its first day.
The story of the game is in the goals. Lauren Hemp scored twice, Kerstin Casparij made an instant impact after coming on as a substitute with what the highlights title calls a stunner, and Bunny Shaw's late strike settled it. The win kept City's 100% start to the season intact. The ten-minute highlights package of the same game is doing well too, but the full ninety minutes is pulling in several times as many views. On this channel, a comeback seems to be something people would rather watch unfold than see summed up.
It was not the only full replay from Sunday to draw a crowd. Chelsea's 3-0 win at West Ham, with goals from Keira Walsh, Melvine Malard and Maika Hamano, made it four league wins in a row for Sonia Bompastor's side. London City Lionesses won 6-1 at Tottenham and handed Spurs their first defeat of the season. Kadidiatou Diani and Daniëlle van de Donk each scored twice, and Alexia Putellas and Delphine Cascarino got the others. Both full matches ran far ahead of the channel's usual first day, and again the full game drew more than the highlights.
A week ago, as we reported here, the full Chelsea v Arsenal recording took a few days to get going. This round of full matches started fast.
