Can hear them shouting on the pitch - the term 'man on'. Shorter than ''woman on'' i suppose

Looks like we're in the FA Cup Final    -0-2 up against Citeh

[OhForAGreavsie 5,895]

The semi-final finished City 0-3 Chelsea. We will face Arsenal, who beat Brighton 3-0 in the other semi, at Wembley on 05/12/2021. I was due to be at the game today but travel disruption meant that I didn't make it.

A reminder that the strange date for a Cup Final is because this is a holdover of last season's tournament which was delayed by covid. CFCW have faced Arsenal twice before in Wembley FA Cup Finals, winning in 2018 after losing in 2016. That 2018 game set the record attendance for a domestic woman's game in this country, 45,423. It would be great if that could be beaten this year. The stadium won't sell out and tickets will be affordable. Anyone who is tempted to attend their first CFCW game, now is your chance.

A win for the Blues would see us complete the 2020/2021 quadruple of League, Cup, League Cup & Community Shield.

FA Cup Semi-Final highlights.

The women took three points against Villa on Saturday. Like the men they produced a dominant performance. Like the men they failed to take their chances but unlike the men they held on for a narrow win.

Brilliant strike by Mellie Leupolz put Chelsea one up in the 8th minute. I do not exaggerate when I say it could have been four already.

[OhForAGreavsie 5,895]

Another nice piece of play culminating in a flick from Sam Kerr to get Fran Kirby in sees us move two up but there has been a change in the game. In the lead up to the first goal we were making chances with every possession but between then and Kirby's strike the Swiss girls have had the better of the play.
