Manchester United have won the Women’s FA Cup final for the first time after beating Tottenham 4-0 at Wembley Stadium.
The goals came from Ella Toone, Rachel Williams, and Lucia Garcia who scored a brace.
United head coach Marc Skinner’s side had the better of the chances throughout the match.
But they only broke the deadlock on the stroke of half-time when midfielder Toone unleashed a powerful strike from outside the area into the top corner.
Spurs, playing in their first Women’s FA Cup final, capitulated after the break and conceded twice in quick succession.
A header from Williams made it 2-0 after 54 minutes, before Garcia pounced on a poor pass from goalkeeper Becky Spencer to take the scoreline to 3-0 in the 57th minute.
Garcia added her second goal via a deflection in the 74th minute as United made amends for losing in last year’s final to Chelsea by clinching their first major trophy since reforming in 2018.
