Chelsea kept their hopes of a quadruple alive after beating Liverpool in dramatic fashion to book their place in the Women’s FA Cup final. A 94th-minute header from Aggie Beever-Jones broke the visitors’ hearts after Olivia Smith had given them an early lead. Late goals in both halves, however, from Erin Cuthbert and then Beever-Jones proved enough to send the Blues through as they continue their quest for another trophy.
