Blackstenius pushes Arsenal closer to Champions League

International striker Stina Blackstenius secured victory for Arsenal with her tenth league goal of the season. In added time, the Swede scored the match's only goal against Everton, and the London club took a big step towards Champions League qualification.

Manchester City has already secured the league title in the English top flight and is four points ahead of second-placed Arsenal with one match left to play.

With three points at home against Everton, Arsenal are on 48 points and have a grip on the second automatic place for the Champions League (CL) next season. Third-placed Chelsea have 46 points and currently have a CL qualifying place with one match remaining.

Against Everton, Blackstenius was brought on in the 76th minute and scored in the 93rd minute to make it 1-0. The goal was the 30-year-old's tenth in the league this season.
