There has been very little to separate the best two teams in England this season but this was another occasion to demonstrate that Chelsea have a clear edge over Arsenal in this particular rivalry.
Emma Hayes’s side are into another FA Cup final after raising their level when they needed it most. Guro Reiten’s stunning opening goal was the moment of quality this semi-final desperately required and from there Chelsea were emphatic in displaying why they are the champions of England and leading the Gunners in the race to defend their title.
