For more than hour at Wembley, Sam Kerr had fed on scraps, chasing lost causes and long balls, as Manchester United dominated the English Women’s FA Cup final.

Then, at last, Chelsea sliced through the red wall of defenders. As Pernille Harder broke down the right, Kerr peeled away into space, anticipated the cross, and stabbed it past FIFA Best Women’s Goalkeeper of the Year Mary Earps.
