Video Of Chelsea Women Player Lauren James Destroying Defenders Goes Viral

A video of Chelsea's women's football team striker Lauren James destroying defenders has left fans stunned. 

The 21-year-old is the sister of Blues defender and England international Reece James. 

But unlike her brother who plays in defence, Lauren plays as a striker in the Women's Super League. 

With a senior career spanning more than five years, Lauren has been able to make a name for herself. 

Her goalscoring prowess has afforded her a spot among some of the best women strikers in the world.

 Incredibly, it is her athleticism and epic dribbling skills that have caught the eye of many supporters. 

A TikTok user @barclayswsl recently shared a compilation of some of Lauren's best dribbles, leaving fans stunned.

"She dribbles exactly like Reece."
