    They did so by dispatching Arsenal 3-1 in a dominant display at Wembley watched by a TV audience of 1.3miillion viewers.
    Fran Kirby netted the opener with Sam Kerr bagging a brace just 24 hours after arriving back in England from international duty in Australia.
    And the match saw the Blues exact revenge on their title rivals who beat them in 3-2 on the opening weekend of the WSL season.
    A Champions League clash on home turf with Juventus, managed by ex-Gunners chief Joe Montemurro, is up next for Emma Hayes’s side.
    The last game between the rivals ended in a 2-1 away win for the WSL queens.
    However, the Blues will be wary of the threat by Montemurro’s club who are second in Group A and just three points behind Chelsea who are top.
    The Italian outfit are in pole position in Serie A having won all ten games played so far this term.
    And they stunned two-time Champions League winners Wolfsburg by beating them 2-0 in Germany in November.

    ARTHUR vs YARDE
    Both men have made their walks and are now in the ring.
    Will Yarde start quicker and let his hands go like promised? Or will Arthur’s jab be the difference again?
    The first bell, or 13th, is almost upon us…
    UP NEXT
    The big one, the main-event, what we’ve all come for.
    Anthony Yarde and Lyndon Arthur fight once more in a rematch to settle the score almost a year to the day since their first.
    Arthur won that with just his jab and an injured right hand, but Yarde has promised knockout revenge.
    SHEERAZ vs SKEETE
    Skeete takes a knee again after a big combination and the fight is over!
    Despite Skeete’s heroic efforts, a combination has put him down for a second and final time in the fight.
    Both boos and cheers ring around the Copper Box following the dramatic nine rounds.
    SHEERAZ vs SKEETE
    Skeete is down again after a massive combination at the end of round eight and just about survives the bell.
    Sheeraz had a point off after flooring Skeete and landing punches while he was down.
    With Skeete likely ahead, he’s been kept in the fight by his trainer.
    SHEERAZ vs SKEETE
    Massive knockdown in round eight for Sheeraz but he then lands a couple of shots while Skeete is on the floor.
    If Skeete is unable to continue, Sheeraz faces being DQ’d here.
    But Skeete has opted to continue and the fight will go on, but Sheeraz has a point taken off.
    SHEERAZ vs SKEETE
    Sheeraz lands a big combination in round seven and as Skeete is trying to slip he hits the deck.
    Looked like a clean knockdown but the ref called it a slip but he is on the retreat and under pressure.
    Skeete makes it through the round but that was the biggest threat he’s had to overcome in the fight so far, Sheeraz needs to keep the pressure on.
    SHEERAZ vs SKEETE
    Through to round six and this fight is really heating up.
    Skeete, despite giving away height and size, has managed out outbox the bigger man so far with a good jab and smart defence.
    But Sheeraz is the bigger and stronger fighter but needs to step on the gas with Skeete banking rounds. Good fight so far.

    NOAKES vs COOPER
    Knockdown scored for Noakes in the ninth round, which could help swing the fight massively in his favour.
    The referee then stops the fight with Cooper on his feet as he failed to stop the late onslaught.
    Noakes retains his 100 per cent KO ratio in right fights now.
    NOAKES vs COOPER
    Half way through the fight and it’s a close affair, with Noakes the aggressor and busier but Cooper holding his own.
    Neither man he really broke the deadlock and it’s give and take so far.
    Second half of the fight will be telling, who wants it more.

    NOAKES VS COOPER
    Time for some lightweight action now as Sam Noakes puts his unbeaten tag on the line.
    Shaun Cooper is no mug though and Walsall native will want to impress on the big stage.

    McCANN vs JURADO
    ROUND 8 – The final bell sounds and that brings the end to a fairly one-sided fight.
    McCann several moments of class during the eight rounds, with rapid combinations and slick defence.
    It failed to put a real dent in Juarado but dominated the action nonetheless winning every round on the cards to go 11-0.

    It failed to put a real dent in Juarado but dominated the action nonetheless winning every round on the cards to go 11-0.
    McCANN vs JURADO
    ROUND 6 – McCann comfortable with two rounds to go but has a cut above his left eye.
    The clash of stances have seen the heads coming together, but the gash should not cause too much concern.
    McCann still in the driving seat, landing combinations but not finding a way to break down the resilient Juarado.
    Credit: Richard Pelham / The Sun
    McCANN vs JURADO
    ROUND 3 – Confident stuff so far from McCann, boxing and moving.
    He’s in complete control and landed some eye-catching left hands, down the middle.
    McCann is getting into a bit of a scrap in close but lands his shots and then circles out, showing lovely defence.
    McCANN vs JURADO
    ROUND 1 – Big end to the round as McCann lands a counter left hand.
    The southpaw brings a massive set of supporters, who are making themselves heard.
    Confident start from McCann, using educated pressure and landing the odd uppercut.
    UP NEXT
    Popular prospect Dennis McCann faces Juan Jose Jurado.
    Bantamweight McCann is unbeaten in ten, with six KOs and is one of the biggest rising stars in the country.
    He’ll be looking to make a statement here.
    FOX vs SOKOLOWSKI
    The referee scored the fight 79-75 to Sokolowski, who rightfully deserves the victory.
    Sokolowski landed some big shots during the eight-round bout and thankfully saw his work rewarded.
    Fox showed flashes of slick boxing, slipping, countering and showing quick hands, but his work was too sporadic.
    FOX vs SOKOLOWSKI
    Better final round for Fox but he needs a bit of a gift on the cards here to avoid defeat.
    He showed good flashes but Sokolowski was far the busier and harder hitter but is the travelling fighter here.
    We await the decision…

    Heading into the final round and Fox needs a KO or something special to avoid defeat here.
    Sokolowski scored several big shots in the seventh round and is on the way to either being robbed or pulling off a big upset.
    Eighth and final round coming up.

    FOX vs SOKOLOWSKI
    Midway through the fight and Fox is looking far from convincing.
    He’s landed the occasional counter right hand – most commonly the uppercut – and flicks out his jab well.
    But Sokolowski is the aggressor and landing more shots by just walking forward.

    ARTHUR vs YARDE 2
    Bantamweight prospect Dennis McCann loves his Haribos.
    So after successfully making the 8st 6lb limit, he enjoyed tucking into a pack on the scales.
    Can he make his boxing record look sweeter with an 11th career win when he faces Juan Jose Jurado?

    ARTHUR vs YARDE 2
    Tonight Lyndon Arthur and Anthony Yarde rematch… almost a year to the day since they first shared the ring.
    Arthur ran out the winner on split-decision over 12 rounds in a tight and disputed win on the cards.
    Yarde has promised revenge, but Arthur warned of a repeat.

    ARTHUR vs YARDE 2
    Charles Frankham moves to 4-0 after stopping Romanian Constantin Radoi in round four.
    A left hook landed flush on Radoi and after stumbling back, the referee waved off the contest.
    It is the second stoppage on Frankham’s record.
