Chiamaka Nnadozie’s Brighton made history on Sunday, qualifying for the final of the Women’s FA Cup for the first time ever.
The Seagulls achieved the remarkable feat with a 3-2 comeback victory over Liverpool at BrewDog Stadium. It takes them one step closer to ending the season with a trophy.
Nnadozie put in another impressive performance in goal. The Super Falcons goalkeeper had kept two clean sheets in her previous two FA Cup appearances. She continued her brilliant form with two crucial saves against the Reds.
Liverpool looked to be cruising towards the final as they took a 2-0 lead before the half-hour mark. Denise O’Sullivan scored 11 minutes in, before Beata Olsson extended their advantage in the 22nd minute.
