Manchester city bagged third Women's FA Cup title in four seasons, starting from 2017. Sam Mewis with teammate Alex Greenwood worked really well before the finals. Mewis said after heading into the net against Everton from Greenwood's corner, "Obviously I kept missing in practice, so it felt great to put one away".

This was the amazing control of the 50th final that the Women's FA Cup holders should already have had a fantastic lead before the opener from American World Cup winner Mewis in the 40th minute. However,  Valérie Gauvin nodded Everton level on the hour and a chance to win was missed by Mewis to seal victory before extra time when a 3-1 victory was eventually sealed. The goalkeeper Sandy MacIver and another substitute Canadian forward Janine Beckie ensured the victory.

"There are girls who played in the FA Cup last year to get us to this point", said Mewis. And this was a double American triumph under the Wembley arch with Rose Lavelle also picking up the trophy after a successful introduction to English football. The team had a day to remember well, but restricted with limited celebrations due to the pandemic keeping fans out of Wembley.
