(Reuters) - Chelsea thrashed Reading 5-0 on the final day of the FA Women's Super League to be crowned champions of England after a superb season in which they lost only once, with Manchester City finishing second and Bristol City relegated.

Knowing a win would secure the title for the second season in a row, Chelsea's Melanie Leupolz got the party started by scoring from a clever corner in the second minute, and Kirby combined with Sam Kerr to strike just before halftime.

Kirby returned the favour in the 71st minute, lofting a pass for Kerr to volley home her 21st league goal of the season to secure the Golden Boot award. The final whistle sparked celebrations from the Blues, who have already won the Community Shield and the Continental Cup this season and face Barcelona in the Champions League final in Gothenburg, Sweden next week.
