After a stoppage-time goal by Aggie Beever-Jones clinched victory over Liverpool, Chelsea captain Millie Bright lifted the trophy to a backdrop of fireworks.

Other teams have gone through a full top-flight campaign unbeaten in women's soccer but not since the league was expanded to 12 teams — with 22 games in the season — in 2019-20.

Sonia Bompastor, in her first season as Chelsea coach, said it was a “really great achievement" by her big-spending club.

“Every game was tough, even though for some people that is difficult to believe,” she said, "but even today we find the goal in the last minute to win.”

Chelsea won the Women's League Cup in March and is into the Women's FA Cup final against Manchester United on May 18 in a bid to secure the domestic treble.

The team's only losses in all competitions this season were in both legs against Barcelona in the Women's Champions League semifinals.

Chelsea, Arsenal and third-place Manchester United will be England's representatives in the Women's Champions League next season.

Arsenal beat United 4-3 in front of 46,603 supporters at Emirates Stadium on Saturday to seal second place ahead of playing the Champions League final against Barcelona in Lisbon on May 24.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s motorcade took a different route than usual to the airport as he was departing Florida on Sunday due to a “suspicious object,” according to the White House.

The object, which the White House did not describe, was discovered during security sweeps in advance of Trump’s arrival at Palm Beach International Airport.

“A further investigation was warranted and the presidential motorcade route was adjusted accordingly,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement Sunday.

The president, when asked about the package by reporters, said, “I know nothing about it.”

Trump left his Palm Beach, Florida, club, Mar-a-Lago, around 6:20 p.m. for the roughly 10-minute drive to the airport, but took a circular route around the city to get there.

During the drive, police officers on motorcycles created a moving blockade for the motorcade, at one point almost colliding with the vans that accompanied Trump.

Air Force One was parked on the opposite side of the airport from where it is usually located and the lights outside the plane were turned off.

Anthony Guglielmi, the spokesman for U.S. Secret Service, said the secondary route was taken just as a precaution and that “that is standard protocol.”
