VIDEO: Horrific for Hannah Hampton! Chelsea goalkeeper stunned by referee's decision as Tottenham equalise in WSL clash

<p>With Chelsea one goal to the good thanks to Maika Hamano's opener, Nilden floated a cross into the box that caught out stopper Hampton in the 21st minute. The England international tried to palm the ball to safety but it was adjudged to have gone over the line and the goal stood. The keeper and her team-mates vehemently protested the decision but with no VAR in the Women's Super League, the goal could not be overturned. </p>
