Whitehouse saves four penalties as Charlton reach WSL and send Leicester down
Sophie Whitehouse etched her name into Charlton folklore as she saved four penalties to win her side promotion to the Women’s Super League and relegate Leicester, despite her notes-laden water bottle being thrown into the stands by her opposite number during the tense shootout.
Katie Keane, the Leicester goalkeeper, appeared to chuck Whitehouse’s bottle into the Jimmy Seed Stand midway through the shootout, but it was retrieved by a member of Charlton’s staff just in time for the 29-year-old to dive to her left, as her notes had advised her, and keep out Noémie Mouchon’s penalty and return Charlton to the top flight after a 19-year absence.
