Players react to reaching the Women's FA Cup final
Mon 15 April 2024, 14:00|Tottenham Hotspur
We created further history at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday as we secured our place in the final of the Adobe Women’s FA Cup for the first time after a 2-1 victory over Leicester City in extra time.
Jess Naz cancelled out Jutta Rantala’s opener as she showed complete calmness to slot the ball past Lize Kop to level the scores with just seven minutes left on the clock, forcing the game into extra time.
And both sides had chances to take the lead in the additional 30 minutes, with the Foxes striking the woodwork with a free-kick, while Matilda Vinberg was denied by their goalkeeper, however, when it looked like we were heading for a second consecutive penalty shootout in this competition, Martha Thomas headed home the winner in the 118th minute.
It sparked jubilant scenes on the pitch and among the supporters in the crowd as we booked our spot in next month’s showpiece final at Wembley. Here’s how the players have reacted to the game via their social media accounts…
