Chelsea discover Women’s FA Cup quarter-final opponents
From the official Chelsea FC website:
Chelsea will host Tottenham Hotspur in the Women’s FA Cup quarter-final.
We sealed our place in the last eight with a hard-fought 2-1 win over Manchester United after extra time at Kingsmeadow.
Substitute Sam Kerr broke the deadlock in the 78th minute, but the away side equalised through Simi Awujo to force an additional 30 minutes.
We sealed our victory when defender Naomi Girma netted the winner in the first half of the additional period and then defended resolutely for the rest of the contest to see out the win.
The quarter-final draw took place earlier this evening and the Blues, the current holders and six-time winners of the trophy, were pitted against the winners of the fifth-round tie between London City Lionesses and Tottenham Hotspur.
That game ended 2-2 after extra time, with Tottenham progressing following a 9-8 penalty shootout victory.
Quarter-final ties will take place around the weekend of 4/5 April. Full fixture and ticket information will follow in due course.
