Liverpool Women's 2025 Barclays Women's Super League season was a story of stark contrasts, defined by memorable victories against top sides and a final league position of 11th. The official results, reported by www.liverpoolfc.com, show a campaign where the team secured 17 points from 22 games, with four wins, five draws, and thirteen losses.
How did the season start for Liverpool Women?
The opening phase was a severe test. Liverpool suffered consecutive defeats, including a 3-0 loss to Arsenal at Anfield and a last-gasp 1-0 loss to Manchester City. A difficult Merseyside derby saw a 2-0 defeat at Everton, compounding a challenging start. The team's resilience was soon tested, and their response would define the middle part of their season.
When did the team find its best form?
A turning point arrived with a stunning 2-0 victory over Chelsea, powered by two early goals from Missy Enderby. This result sparked a positive run. Enderby was again the hero in a 4-0 demolition of Aston Villa, scoring four times. The team also secured a 2-1 derby win over Everton thanks to a brace from Bianca Olsson. Further wins against Tottenham and West Ham followed, with Olsson and Enderby consistently on the scoresheet. This period showcased the attacking potential within the squad.
What were the key results against title contenders?
Liverpool produced two of the season's biggest shocks by beating the eventual top two. The 2-0 win against Chelsea at Kingsmeadow was a tactical masterclass. Even more impressive was the 2-1 away victory at Arsenal, where Olsson scored twice in three minutes to secure a famous three points. These results proved Liverpool could compete with the very best on their day, though consistency against the rest of the league proved elusive.
How did the season conclude?
The final matches were mixed. A 1-0 win over London City and a tight 2-1 victory against Brighton provided late points. However, heavy losses, including a 3-0 reverse to Aston Villa and a 3-0 defeat at Leicester City, highlighted defensive issues. The campaign concluded with the team in 11th place, having scored 21 goals but conceding 34 for a -13 goal difference. They finished a substantial 38 points behind the champions, Manchester City, a gap outlined in the final standings.

Missy Enderby and Bianca Olsson carried the main goal threat. Enderby's four-goal haul against Aston Villa was the individual performance of the season, while Olsson's decisive doubles against Everton and Arsenal were vital.
