Chelsea Beat Manchester City in Women’s FA Cup Semi-Final

A full-page match photograph reporting Chelsea’s 3-0 win over Manchester City in the Women’s FA Cup semi-final at the Academy Stadium, Manchester, on 31 October 2021. The caption identifies scorers Melanie Leupolz and Erin Cuthbert celebrating with Guro Reiten, and credits the image to Andrew Yates of Sportimage. The page carries no accompanying report beyond the caption, and sits between the news pages and the Lotte Wubben-Moy cover feature. The issue’s own Big Match and Dates Diary on page six places the resulting final, Arsenal against Chelsea at Wembley on 5 December with a two o’clock kick-off, alongside the SWPL Cup final at Firhill on the same afternoon, and notes separately that resolution of the 2019-20 Women’s FA Cup quarter-finals was still under review.
