Women's FA Cup final

Sam Kerr was Chelsea's hero once again as her double helped the Blues to a 3-2 extra-time victory in the Women's FA Cup final against Manchester City, adding to ...

I felt like we nullified their threat well, and created our own chances but we just needed to be a bit tidier in the final bit. "We stopped Man City's momentum in the way we press, but it meant we had to suffer and there was a lot of cramping and groin strains. We controlled large parts of the game and then the last 20 minutes, I thought we were excellent. "Of course I'm going to be biased, but I felt like we were the dominant team in large periods of the game," he reflected. "The numbers favoured City's performance, but the outcome was down to Chelsea's ruthlessness. "But Hayes' mentality monsters won out once again and their ability to win in the big moments - even if they might not be the best - is unparalleled. I loved the game plan, I thought it was really aggressive, but we had to grind and work. They spent the majority of the tie without the ball and trailed Man City in almost every department, bar the scoreline. It is a game Chelsea won despite being second best for much of the match. It beat the previous record of 45,423, which was set when Chelsea beat Arsenal at Wembley in 2018. It was another dramatic twist in the showpiece finale worthy of the record-breaking crowd. The defender's delivery looked goal-bound, but Kerr was there to help it on its way.

It was a hugely important moment for Raso on the biggest of stages. It was Alanna Kennedy's error, missing an attempted interception, which gifted Chelsea the ball 10 minutes into extra time. It was a deserved opener for Chelsea, which had handled the occasion far better than its opponent in the early stages.

If they go in like that Wembley I’m happy. ‘I don’t score goals like that but it’s an amazing honour. ‘Especially when you lose a goal five minutes from time it does take the wind out of you, you have to regroup and we had to dig deep and find a level that we’ve not found in ourselves before.

Sam Kerr's deflected strike settled a classic match, played in front of a record crowd, and sealed Chelsea's third Double in five seasons.

She misses her kick, and then Reiten shapes a curling shot wide of the far post with her right foot. 106 min A half chance for City within 25 seconds of the restart. Her cutback is blocked by Eriksson (I think) and Stanway thrashes the loose ball over from 20 yards. Alanna Kennedy is devastated, because it was her mistake that led to the goal. Greenwood pinged an angled ball towards Raso, who made a fine run infield from the right. “We’ve faced a lot of adversity this year – Covid, injuries – and we’ve had to use the squad. The manner of the winning goal haunt Alanna Kennedy for a long time. One Step Beyond, the Chelsea anthem, is blaring out across Wembley. They’re a great side, who deserve everything they get, but you have to feel for City. The margins are so fine. Four goals in a week, to win the two biggest prizes in English football: yeah, she’d have taken that. I thought it was gonna be the winning goal and it wasn’t! It doesnae matter if it was a good goal or not – Sam’s was a deflection and that’s as important because it was the winner. I’m just so proud to end the season on a high. What a performance from the girls.

City suffered heartbreak in the Women's FA Cup Final, falling to an agonising 3-2 defeat at the hands of Chelsea.

Roebuck took her place in goal, shielded by a back line of Stokes, Greenwood, Alanna Kennedy and Bronze, while Keira Walsh protected the back four in defensive midfield. With just a minute of normal time remaining, Raso outmuscled Magdalena Eriksson to reach Alex Greenwood's floated long ball and poked expertly beyond Berger to send the City fans into raptures. As City pressed for a leveller, Stanway blazed over the bar after more good work from Shaw, and Lucy Bronze and Caroline Weir fired wide. Georgia Stanway - in search of her third Wembley goal - saw her powerful strike deflected wide off Jess Carter, while Shaw was upended under pressure from Nouwen. Referee Kirsty Dowle waved away the protests on both occasions. With time running out, we desperately surged forward. Though City gave our all in search of a third leveller, it was not to be, as the 2021/22 season drew to a close with a thoroughly entertaining affair, which was contested in front of a record crowd of 49,094 at Wembley Stadium.

They have clinched their fourth Continental Cup - at the expense of Chelsea - and secured Champions League football for the new term. A quite improbable feat at ...

Their tallies don't yet match, but the Blues are beginning to position themselves as the powerhouse of women's football in England. This group will want to win it and if they do, it will cement them as the best team in England right now." This is just a final game of the season. The crescendo at Wembley Stadium this Sunday will therefore be telling. "I haven't seen a team cause Chelsea as many problems as Man City did in that final for a long time. That's what won them last year's FA Cup," the former Chelsea midfielder continued. In this instance, form across the entire season is a problematic gauge. The cost of a string of disappointing results. Chelsea are resilient; in stressful moments they don't panic, they problem solve, they get out of sticky situations. "City are unbeaten since early February - their goals for are pretty spectacular in this period. The Sky Blues have had a taste of silverware already this season, with that game itself presenting an interesting juncture. Chelsea are, of course, not unfamiliar to cup success themselves.

Chelsea sealed the Double by beating Manchester City after extra-time in an FA Cup Final classic at Wembley.

The teams both come into the match on the back of lengthy winning runs, with City winning 13 in a row and and Chelsea on a 11-match streak. The last time both ...

120 mins: Both teams look shattered now. Chelsea have done it! They were made to work for it after being pegged back twice during the 90 minutes. Chelsea are the 2021/22 Women’s FA Cup champions! Here are the celebrations. If they go in like that at Wembley I’m happy.

The prolific Australian striker struck twice as Chelsea clinched a domestic double in front of a record attendance at Wembley.

Manager has built a durable, controlled side over a decade and it was telling in the victory against Manchester City.

You think you have them on the ropes, you think they are riding their luck but really you are just playing their game and deep down you know it. There was an inevitability to Kerr as she bore down on City’s goal in extra time, an inevitability to the deflection that took the ball past Ellie Roebuck, an inevitability to the way they saw the game out under the highest pressure, with the double on the line and a crowd of 49,000 baying for more drama. A large part of Chelsea’s devastating potency in these games is that sense of certainty: the ability not just to envisage their own triumph but somehow to make their opponents envisage it too. And yet through all the wildly juddering emotions of the day, it always felt as if Hayes was in control, still orchestrating, still seeing the game unfold a few moments before anyone else. And if you are Emma Hayes, it means you have no hesitation in substituting off one of your substitutes to close down the game, even when that player is Ji So-yun, an all-time great playing her last ever game for your club. If you are Sam Kerr, it means that even when you have barely had a touch of the ball all game, you still somehow leave the pitch with two goals and a medal round your neck.

'Will go down in history': Sam Kerr does it AGAIN in FA Cup final stunner.

We have a group of people that don’t like to be on a losing team and they’ll find a way [to win].” I’ll look back in ten years’ time and I’ll say ‘that group was immense, the best team I’ve ever coached’. I totally understand the want to talk about perfection in football but having been on the winning side more often than not, let me tell you it’s about human endeavour. Kerr has also claimed the personal accolades as player of the year for an exceptional season and it was fitting the WSL’s top scorer had the final stay in extra time in front of a record crowd of 49,000 for a women’s FA Cup final.
