Arsenal 3-0 Brighton
by Layth Yousif

AN UTTERLY dominant Arsenal Women beat Brighton Women 3-0 to reach 2021’s delayed FA Cup final at Wembley in December.  

Second-half goals from Kim Little, Beth Mead and captain Leah Williamson saw Jonas Eidevall’s Gunners ease past the visitors from the south coast.  

It was fitting that there were fireworks let off outside Meadow Park during the match, which was aired live on the BBC: the football that the 14-time cup winners played on Sunday evening deserved to be illuminated.
