Man City Women appeal to 'smash' attendance record for FA Cup final

Manchester City Women want to continue their brilliant form by lifting the FA Cup at Wembley on Sunday in front of a record crowd — and they are calling upon fans to get their tickets this week.

Some 40,000 tickets have already been sold for the season's showpiece event, where an in-form City side will face newly-crowned Women's Super League champions, Chelsea. City were as low as ninth in the WSL this season, but have put together a run of just one defeat in their past 23 games: reaching the FA Cup final, winning the Continental Cup, and securing Champions League football for next season.

It's set up to be an epic final between the two most in-form sides in the country — who already produced a classic in that Continental Cup final — and City goalkeeper Karen Bardsley says the Blues are keen to finish their resurgent season in style, hopefully with a record crowd at Wembley.
