Chelsea won the Women’s FA Cup this season, defeating Arsenal 3-0 in the final at Wembley Stadium on Sunday.
From the start, Emma Hayes’ team overpowered the female Gunners, with Fran Kirby putting the Blues up after only three minutes.
After the break, Sam Kerr extended Chelsea’s advantage and finished the game with a stunning chip with 15 minutes remaining.
It was a tremendous effort by the Blues, who were playing in their sixth FA Cup final against an Arsenal team.
The Blues also completed a domestic triple after the competition was postponed last season due to the coronavirus outbreak.
The Blues and the Gunners are currently in a serious battle in the race for the Women’s Super League.
Chelsea are just six points clear of their nearest rivals after just eight matches.
Following Chelsea’s emphatic win, double goalscorer Kerr said: “I think we deserved it – I think we played really well, as we have done in the past few weeks.”
