Imy Hussain:, external Congratulations, Liverpool!
Tom Young:, external Woohoo! Well done Liverpool! Excellent result!
Chuks Okoro:, external With more nerve-wracking ends to the season, the WSL should be televised more.
Can you take any more? Will Estonia v England provide the same drama as the conclusion of the WSL? We're live now to find out.

"Chelsea must be so disappointed. I'm looking at the girls now and they are distraught, heads in hands. The championship was in their hands. Was the pressure a bit too much? Maybe so, because a lot of the players haven't been this situation before.
"An extraordinary end top the season, and that's fantastic, because for those of us who love women's football know this is exactly what we wanted. Liverpool have got better and better through the season as various injured players have come back, going about their business quietly and winning their games.
"It's a massive shock that the top two teams in the league both failed to get a win on the final day of the campaign. Extraordinary."
Liverpool manager Matt Beard: "I'm over the moon. The players deserve so much credit. They have dug deep.
"Our second-half performance, we dominated to get three goals. The other scores put pressure on us."
That motorbike can continue of its way to Widnes, where the champagne corks are popping. In Manchester, Chelsea are inconsolable.
What an amazing afternoon. From third place, Liverpool have retained the WSL, beating Bristol Academy and then watching other results go their way. Tears of joy in Widnes, tears of sadness in Manchester and Solihull. Both Chelsea and Birmingham had it in their own hands, but they could not grasp the title.
All over. Birmingham have failed to beat Notts County. Unbelievably, Liverpool are the Women's Super League Champions.
Chelsea's dream is over. The WSL has slipped away. Then there were two...
Great save by Rachel Brooks! The teenager denies Yuki Ogimi's diving header. In Solihull, Notts County's Carly Telford continues to be a wall stopping Birmimgham.

"The way this game's gone I still think there might be one more chance left..."
...Rachel Williams heads over. Two teams in Blue search for a goal, with Notts County goalkeeper Carly Telford pulling off a brilliant save to deny Birmingham. Has that won the league for Liverpool?
All done in Widnes, Liverpool can do no more. Four minutes of stoppage time for Birmingham. Chelsea corner coming up...
No news from Solihull. Birmingham need only one goal, but their chance of the title is slipping away. Three minutes of time added in Manchester. Three minutes for Chelsea to win the WSL.
Stoppage time in Widnes, Liverpool almost home. It looks like they will finish first, then they must wait.
Groenen again! Finding space from Eni Aluko's cross. The Dutchwoman falls over her own feet when the goal is at her mercy, asking for a penalty. There's nothing it that.
Five to go in Manchester, the home fans getting noisy. Chelsea corner on the left, falling to Jackie Groenen, blazed over. How many more chances will Chelsea get?
I wonder how far that motorbike has got to Widnes? Imagine how angry the driver will be if Chelsea score. "I'm past Warrington!"
Ric Bixter:, external This is amazing! Liverpool leading, but a goal in either of other matches changes everything. 10 minutes left!
Chelsea pressing, Manchester City scrambling. Ball pumped into the area, cleared. Anywhere will do. Hannah Blundell with the strike, miles wide.
