Chelsea Women have sealed a spectacular domestic treble with a rampant 3-0 victory over Manchester United in the Women’s FA Cup final.
Two goals from Sandy Baltimore and Catarina Macario’s strike ensured Sonia Bompaster’s debut season at the helm ended in dream fashion.
Baltimore had given Chelsea lead at half-time via a penalty, before Macario’s 84th-minute goal and the former’s stoppage-time addition.
The victory means Chelsea have gone 30 domestic games unbeaten this season, winning 27 of them.
Indeed, the only thing blocking Bompastor from perfection is a Champions League semi-finals exit to Barcelona – but that is hardly a stain.
Many wondered how the Londoners would would fare after losing legendary manager Emma Hayes, but Bompaster has presided over a historic campaign.
Reddit founder Alexis Ohania, who recently bought a stake in Chelsea, was there with his wife Serena Williams, but Sir Jim Ratcliffe was not there to watch United.
