Manchester City have clinched their first Women's Super League title in 10 years.
Arsenal's draw at Brighton on Wednesday night means City cannot be caught at the top of the WSL ahead of their final game of the season at West Ham on Saturday May 16.
City's title is their first since their invincibles campaign of 2016 and officially ends Chelsea's dominance of the WSL. The Blues had been champions for the past six seasons, and had won eight titles (including the 2017 Spring Series) since City last lifted the trophy.
City's triumph is made even more impressive as it comes in Andree Jeglertz's first season since replacing Gareth Taylor as the club's permanent head coach, taking over from interim boss Nick Cushing last summer.
Jeglertz could still lead City to a domestic double - they face Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-finals on Sunday.
After winning the title, Jeglertz said: "Helping guide this team to the WSL title is something I will never forget. The girls have met every challenge in front of them head-on and have been an absolute joy to coach this season.
"In the good moments and the bad, they've always stuck together and found a way to win - something that all great champions do.
"This wouldn't have been possible without the incredible effort, belief, passion and dedication of my colleagues, the players and the fans. They've all been a credit to the club as well as themselves and deserve to celebrate this amazing moment.
"But this isn't the end of the road - we still have plenty to fight for this season and in the coming years. I'm excited by what the future holds for this amazing group of players and this fantastic club."

So much about this Manchester City side is a class above. From the fearless football to the relentless culture driven by the unflappable Andree Jeglertz, City have beaten every other side to this title by being better. No challenger could match them across this season.
Title wins are built on moments and City have created many memorable ones. What sticks out most is how they have seen off direct rivals so emphatically. The 3-2 victory over Arsenal in October, the 5-1 mauling of Chelsea in February and the 3-0 thumping of Man Utd in the derby in March all stand out as key results.
More than that, they were results that proved their worthiness. City have not relied on others to do their dirty work. They are a force; a squad perfectly balanced with leaders, work horses and world-class talent. It's got enough depth to dominate for years to come.
Jeglertz becomes only the third manager in WSL history to claim top spot in his debut season. His character and humility have been key to success. It's no surprise he's already pointing towards what more can be achieved with this group. Expectation should be huge. The possibilities are quite literally endless.
