'Not won anything' - Marc Skinner urges caution after Manchester United reach FA Cup Final

Manchester United boss Marc Skinner has admitted it "means a lot" to have guided the club to a first Women's FA Cup Final but insisted his side "haven't won anything yet".

It was Brighton who opened the scoring in Saturday's semi-final clash at Leigh Sports Village, with Mary Earps spilling Veatriki Sarri's cross into her own net after 36 minutes. However, United restored parity less than two minutes into the second half, with Leah Galton coolly dispatching One Batlle's inch-perfect ball into the back of the net.

Alessia Russo put the hosts in front with an emphatic finish into the top corner before Danielle Carter's well-taken leveller just minutes later set up a grandstand finish to the tie. Substitute Rachel Williams netted the winner in the 89th minute to send United to Wembley, but Skinner has urged his players to focus on one game at a time, starting with Wednesday's Women's Super League clash with title rivals Arsenal.
