Thank you so much for joining me for this historic Women’s FA Cup final. United’s first major final, a sold-out Wembley for the first time, Chelsea become only the second women’s club to win the trophy three times in a row and VAR was in operation for the first time. VAR played a huge part in the game, ruling out Galton’s goal in the first minute. Chelsea held on after a monumental United performance and Harder proved the difference for the Blues. Her pass to Kerr saw her score the winner, and celebrate with her famous backflip. If you want to recap the action have a read of Suzy Wrack’s report below. We will be back bringing you the action in the WSL on Wednesday with Everton v Arsenal and West Ham v Chelsea. But for now, enjoy the rest of your Sunday whatever you’re doing.
Chelsea’s Erin Cuthbert told the BBC: “Delighted, tough game. Man u were really good and made it difficult for us. They had a fast start but we sorted things out at half-time. I want to play in the biggest games, I want to play in a tight game and test ourselves against the best. We want everyone to make everyone else better. I was watching England Euros and I thought ‘I’ll never be able to play at a sold-out Wembley’. It’s amazing to see how fast women’s football has progressed.”
