Record crowd watches Arsenal beat Tottenham in Women's Super League

Tottenham's new billion-dollar stadium attracted a record crowd for women's soccer in England with 38,262 fans watching a historic north London derby between Tottenham and Arsenal Sunday.

The game was a new high for the Women's Super League (WSL), surpassing the 31,213 who packed in to watch Manchester City's win over Manchester United in September.

Tottenham was promoted to the top flight this season to set up its first competitive meeting with traditional rival Arsenal since the WSL began in 2011.

Arsenal, which brought a lively pack of away fans, triumphed 2-0 with goals from Kim Little and Vivianne Miedema, but it was another landmark moment in the women's game that continues to grow in England and around the world.

There was certainly a family feel to Sunday's game with cheaper tickets offering children a chance to watch women's football in one of the world's คาสิโนsagameing best stadiums.

However, the London rivalry was not lost on the younger audience and both sets of fans contributed to a lively atmosphere in the stadium.

"To step out today in front of that many people is just everything I've dreamed of," Tottenham player Josie Green told Spurs TV.

"If we can just inspire a few girls today to get out and join a team or keep playing football and know that one day that maybe they can come and play here, it's just amazing."
