Women's FA Cup final between Man City and Chelsea to be played in front of record crowd

Sunday's FA Women's Cup final between Manchester City and Chelsea will be played in front of a record crowd at Wembley.

City Women will be hoping to end a disappointing season on a high by winning the FA Cup for the third time in their history. Though the Blues did win the Conti Cup earlier this season, a bad start to the Women's Super League meant they finished way below expectations as they only mathematically secured third place and Champions League qualification on the final day of the season.

However, there has been a significant improvement since November when several crucial players returned from injury and Gareth Taylor's side has gone on to win 21 out of their 23 fixtures since. Losing only once. Lifting the FA Cup would bring the campaign to a happy conclusion.
