Chelsea Women are setting their sights on more silverware in the second half of the season, according to wing-back Sandy Baltimore. The team, known for its success, achieved a domestic treble last season while remaining unbeaten throughout. Baltimore played a crucial role in that triumph, contributing significantly in the FA Cup final against Manchester United Women, where she scored twice and assisted the third goal.
As the Women’s Super League (WSL) resumes this weekend, a match against West Ham looms, and Chelsea is eager to close the six-point gap behind league leaders, Manchester City Women. “We’re all really looking forward to it,” Baltimore shared during the opening of PUMA’s flagship store in London.
Her ambitions align with the team’s outlook for the rest of the season, which includes continuing to compete on all fronts while evolving their playing style. Baltimore remarked on the positive start to the season and highlighted that both successful and challenging moments have contributed to the team’s growth and cohesion.
Her personal development has been noteworthy, having played multiple positions on the left side during her time at Chelsea. The squad rotation has not only expanded her skill set but has also fostered a competitive spirit among her teammates. “Competition is part of it too. I see it as a positive because it pushes everyone to give their best every day,” she stated, emphasizing the healthy atmosphere within the squad.
PUMA’s commitment to women’s football resonates with Baltimore, who appreciates the brand’s supportive approach. She expressed confidence in her adaptability on the field, whether as a left-back or left midfielder, ensuring she contributes effectively to the team’s tactics.
As the season progresses, Chelsea intends to leverage their depth and experience to reclaim the top spot in the league and contend for more trophies. With the team’s collective ambition and momentum, fans can look forward to an exciting second half of the season. The upcoming match against West Ham will be broadcast live on Sky Sports, offering an opportunity for supporters to cheer on the Blues as they aim for victory and silverware once again.
