Alex Greenwood has urged her Manchester City team-mates to stay humble after their momentous 1-0 victory at Chelsea.
Khadija Shaw netted the only goal of the game at Kingsmeadow after 14 minutes to move City level on points with the Women's Super League leaders.
Tied on goal difference, only the Blues' superior record of 41 goals scored keeps Gareth Taylor's side off top spot.
England defender Greenwood said: "For us it's about staying humble.
"I think we've always had what it takes. We do what we do and we stay focused.
"We should enjoy this, then we go again. There are eight games to go."

City boss Taylor added: "I think you have to give great credit to the way we defended as a team — we were throwing bodies at it. We have such a desire to keep clean sheets.
"I didn't enjoy the second half, I have to be honest. We know we can look after the ball better than that but I can't criticise.
"It is a big step for us. It is my first win here. They made it a bit of a fortress. We have broken that record now and we deserved it.
"We played some good stuff in the first half and in the latter stages it was a really good show of defending from the entire team."

City return to action after the international break when they entertain Everton on March 2 while Chelsea must bounce back at Leicester the following day.
Blues boss Emma Hayes said: "We gave away a goal that is a poor goal on our part and then you don't get many big chances in these games.
"That could easily have been a 0-0 game. These things happen. We can't win them all. It is football.
"I think we lacked the top things that you want to have when you are playing against the top sides."
